I stumbled apon a website devoted specifically to fathers who have lost children, regardless of age and circumstance. The author Kelly Farley, lost two of his children, both toddlers to a genetic disorder. I have been struggling with the lack of communication with my boyfriend who lost his 23 year old son in a car crash in December.
I purchased and read Kelly Farleys book over the past two days, it is called "Grieving Dads, To the Brink and Back". Painfully honest stories from men, of all ages, with children of all ages that died too young. How they struggled each day, fell apart and found their way back. I cried with every story, and couldn't put the book down.
For me, it was a slap of reality, how my boyfriend must be feeling, and how lost he must be. This book was a Godsend, and I recommend it to any man out there who has lost a child. And to women, partners, family of the bereaved father, to put things in a totally different perspective.

And for those that need the support, Kelly Farley will answer emails. He wrote to me, and will talk by phone with bereaved fathers.
My boyfriends support is his job right now, and he is pouring himself into work. I am hoping he will reach out for help when he is ready. Prayers to you and your mother in law.
