Thank you for your great responses!
I actually did try and explain it to her like, you know how you sometimes scratch your knees? that's the same.
I was not planning on telling her the actual truth, just that I was sometimes not feeling so well and then the scars come, just like she was not feeling well when her tummy hurts. something like that.
I think I'll just leave it at that, and if she doesn't stop asking, I will talk to her mom about it and ask her what to do.
but you guys were really helpful and I was able to think it through again from a different point of view, so thanks a lot!
