[tri-wings] How do you tell people?

I am helping an Australian family at the moment that have just received a 
prenatal diagnosis. The mum is wanting to continue on with the pregnancy and is 
very realistic about possible outcomes, but is also concerned about telling 
everyone at work. 
She is a high school teacher and its hard enough to tell your collegues as we 
all know, but she is equally, if not more worried about her Year 8 students. 
There is one young girl that she is particularly worried about as she lost both 
parents in an accident a few months ago and isnt dealing all that well with it.

At the moment she has told very few people but once she does it will only be a 
matter of time before the students hear as well. Does anyone have any advice 
that I could share with her??
