The Grief Nobody Talks About

Men are expected to be strong. To hold it together. But I was utterly broken. For the first time, I want to share what grief looked like from where I was standing. Nobody asked how I was doing — they asked about my wife, my family, but rarely me. Baby Loss Retreat's men's support group was the first place I felt truly seen in my grief. I learned that being strong doesn't mean hiding pain, it means being honest about it.
