We got back to my moms around 6 pm. Just enough time to head to Seabrook nH for the annual summer get together for Fathers Forever. FF is a group that i was very sad to join. Everyone of us has had a child of ours die. I joined the group after Sam died. My freind Craig reached out to me and invited me in, the group has been meeting for more than 10 years in boston. They get together once a month or so for breakfast.. <\/p>\n
Once a year they get together at the beach.. And today was that day<\/p>\n
I met up with the guys at Browns Lobster Pot in Seabrook NH. They had mostly finished dinenr, but i was able to eat their remaining onion rings..Beleive it or not.. The ocnver sat ion was mostly light and fun,. The common expereince lets us say anything,,<\/p>\n
We talked for about an hour about .. Our kids living and dead, our families, burials, writings, and overall how we were doing.<\/p>\n
There were dads there who lost a child wihin the last year.. And others who were 25 years past,,it didnt matter where we were from, what had happened.. We were all bound by this very hard. Common cirmcumstance,, we say its the club with the highest dues…<\/p>\n
O was so happy to have made it there !<\/p>\n
