My grandad died when I was quite young and my parents told me that he "passed away". A few weeks later my dad was doing some DIY around the house and he hurt his hand quite badly with a hammer. I could see that my Dad was in pain and my mum asked him if he thought he was going to pass out. I was horrified and burst into tears, I said "I don't want you to die Daddy". My Mum quickly explained that she only meant that Daddy might faint!
