Inquiry: If I become a jew or geir,if my kids are in the hospital will i be allowed to visit them if its life threatening

---

Of course! Life-threatening situations are covered by the principle of pi•quꞋ akh •nëphꞋ ësh.

Even if their health might only be impaired by not visiting, this principle makes it a mitz•wâhꞋ  to visit – overriding Shab•âtꞋ  (or Yom ha-Ki•pur•imꞋ  – which is lesser than Shab•âtꞋ ).
