The fathers speaking through these pages offer their stories and experience of the death of their child(ren) to let you know that you are not the only one. They know. Like you, they have said the unthinkable good-bye. On days when it may feel as if the world has forgotten you and your child, these fathers are here to help you remember that you are not alone.
