In the winter, you’ll often see articles about coping with grief during the holidays; but times such as Father’s Day can be just as difficult, especially for those who have lost a child.
The following article from CIGNA talks about struggling with Father’s Day.
“Father’s Day is a time of celebration and love, but for some it can also be a time of great heartache.”

My daughter died before her first birthday. I knew Christmas would be hard, but I didn’t realize how devastating Mother’s Day would be. I couldn’t figure out how I was supposed to feel…
Even if everyone else was thinking “what should I say?” no one wanted to bring it up. Only one person acknowledged how hard it must be, but I really did appreciate it.
