Write to them. Invite them to come see you. Explain it to them in person where that is best, or leave it in writing where that is best. Only you can judge your depth of relationship with each person.
You can't take the burden off them by not telling them. They will feel burdened because you didn't include them and trust them to be there for you. When you tell them, you give them a chance to say goodbye, if you want to.
All this is conjecture on my part because I am not at this time in your position, but if someone I cared about were dying, I would want to know.
God bless you, and may you know peace.

I feel so bad.
it's up to you if you don't want to tell them then don't, spend the time you have close to them.
if you do then tell them, first tell them what's going on and let them on slowly.
sorry.
i really am.
