  • Summary

  • I’m talking to Andrew and it’s 10pm for me in Osaka and 9am for him in the US…


    We begin talking about the two words which he uses to describe his personal journey - ‘filling’ and ‘grateful’.


    Andrew has a unique and lovely way with words which I could never do, we talk about his life as dad which is so special.


    For the last 7 years as caretaker for his youngest, Hadley, it is hard to imagine sometimes how bloody hard it must be, but like most dads, he steps up to the plate, like I did and like most dads do when we have a child with extra needs.


    Does that come at a mental and physical cost? Maybe it does, for me it has.


    That’s when Andrew shares that in the last week he cried in the car on his own,, while listening to music LOUD, and while it was not planned (never is) it is most needed and allowed him to give himself some self love and self compassion, resulting in him to be able to do what he does all over again., hoping that the sun will always come up the next day.



    THIS IS A REAL UNFILTERED DAD JOURNEY.
