Grieving together and apart; the differences between mums and dads

Dad Still Standing

One of the most challenging aspects of losing a child is the strain it puts on your partner, relationship, and family.

In this episode, Matt and Liam discuss their experiences of how mums and dads grieve in different ways.

It is a theme that comes up often and a subject that has been mentioned in almost all of the messages the podcast has received.

Frequently, dads reach out to us because they feel they are grieving differently from their partners. And often mums have emailed the show because they don't understand the reaction of their partners.

Ultimately grief is a personal emotional response and in the episode, Matt and Liam delve deeper into why we can grieve so differently from those around us who have experienced the same tragedy.
