At what age should I explain to my son about his heart problems?

Heart Problems
jandismommie asked:


When my son was born he had to have surgery on his heart because he was born with several defects in his heart. He is starting to ask me lots of questions about his scar and what the doctors did and why he was born this way and his brother wasn’t, etc. I just don’t know how much detail I should tell and how to answer some of these questions. At what age should I explain in detail about what he went through and what is the best way to answer these questions so he can understand them? Thank You!
