I agree getting the man to talk about his son, and all the good things that his son did is very cathartic. Yet I couldn’t help but cringe when the good doctor would break in when the grieving father would start another thought ,& just ask, was he funny? It would’ve been a lot more cathartic if the doctor would’ve listened a little bit more,had not been so impatient and allowed the man to get out what he was trying to say. Very good channel . I think I’ll subscribe anyway - this is a smart doctor.

My second husband and my 9 year old daughter and 14 year old son were all in a car accident. My daughter died, my husband died, but my son lived. He was the reason I was able to hold it together to still be mom to my son. Because my son needed me. You never get over it, it doesn’t get better, it just get different. This was 1999 and it is still a crushing pain. My heart shatters for this father.

I can’t even imagine going through that! I’m so glad you realized what you needed to do! For both of you! I watch a hospice nurse online who has a great description of grief. She draws a box with a button and a ball. She explains the ball bouncing around in the box and it’s a big ball it hits the button. Over time the ball gets smaller, still bouncing, hits the button but not as often. Basically the pain doesn’t go away but every once in awhile it lands on the button. It was such a great way to explain it because it doesn’t go away, it’s just less often! It’s what I thought about from your comment!

As a parent who lost a son March 9, 2023, i didn't want to click on this video. I was so glad I did. Dr. John handled this with the utmost grace and empathy. People mostly avoid talking about my son. They don't want to trigger my sadness. Please talk about them! Please bring them up in conversation. Please tell me the silly thing you noticed about him. Please say his name. Please listen to me. These are the things that help get the parent through this. Life will never be the same. You never get over it. The pain is always there. Good and bad days will come and go. It doesn't matter who that child was to you just honor that child and you will be honoring the grieving parent.

Poor man. 😢 This reminds me of an accident in my country: A firefighter was home in the countryside when he heard that a bus and a timber truck has collided. He instantly knew it was the school bus which his daughter was on. He immediately drove to the place and was there before the firefighters, the ambulances and the police. When he came there he saw that timber had gone through the windshield and in to the bus with a brutal force. He jumped on to the bus. And to his horror he immediately saw that his daughter was dead. She hade been hit by a timber log and had massive injuries. But near her he saw a child that was alive but badly hurt. So he went in to firefighter mode. He knew he could not be able to revive his daughter but he could help someone else’s child. He did everything for that child to keep her alive until the ambulances came. That girl survived because of him. She would have died if he had not come there before the firefighters and the ambulances. A true hero. ❤️

Disagrees. Saying that you saying to people that their pain don't matter. Different problems affect people differently. Also i see here comments on suicide. Not everyone fortunate having a loving father. You say losing a child. Atleast you didn't had that bad because you had a chance to have a child now imagine having nothing since being a toddler only pain no positivity. I have been suicidal and wished I was dead. No one cares and only cares inflicting more damage. They care only then it's too late. But don't care on the way while causing the damage that made people suicidal in the first place. So all people complaining why people suicide. Got themselves to blame for being allergic to kindness and showing love. Ignoring neglecting what a child actually needs pretending he got what he needs just because of your stupid stereotypes. Not paying attention. I've been molested manipulated bullied since being a toddler and what people do then they see suffering or terrified of people? That's right they give even more pain neglect and so on and that is going on entire growth period. Good luck trusting anyone after that. I don't mind being aborted. It's parents fault for having kids before you ready. So selfish knowing you not in position to give them safety and love so don't have them. If I ever get out of this pit it I'd never have kids unless I'm sure I give them love and can protect them

I understand as I lost my only child two years ago. He was a little older but barely into adulthood. I remember well those early days when I was completely bereft and he occupied every waking thought. I heard a very helpful analogy by a well known grief counsellor who compared the grief to a rubber ball squeezed into a small jar. There is no room for anything else, but every time you do something positive or joyful even if you have to go out of your way to do it, the jar gets a little bit bigger each time. The tragedy doesn’t lessen, but it becomes easier to carry over time and occupies a smaller part of your life. God bless this family.

I still wake up thinking about it. But my only peace is me telling myself, she had 24 years of accomplishments, why am I focusing on the one second that took her life? She wouldn’t want that. I sit here making cap attachments for her twins that graduates preschool Tuesday so they will have a picture of their momma with them. My husband and I are raising her babies. I keep going for them. But I am numb inside and I’m miserable! I fake every smile and I feel guilty if I have a moment of true happiness and that life is going on! Everyone acts as though I won a race bc I am simply still here. That is not an achievement. I am forced to do it. I know God has a plan. And I know he left her boys to me bc they are what keeps me here. His promise that I will see her again is the only reason I haven’t left earth on my own time. It will never get better.

I wish i would have died instead, i would have given my life for both of them. And everyday beeing a sad day filled with darkness, is aweful. I loved life because of my family, and nothing cab replace that. I wish there is a heaven so we meet again.

As John says, you need to live in reality.. remember that every relationship we ever have will end at some point.. death is a part of life. Sorry for your loss and I hope you can move past it and enjoy life.

There is a place, it's called heaven. Trust in the Lord and read the Bible, you will find the answers you seek. So sorry for all of your losses, but you must be a very strong person and God has a purpose for you.❤ Jeremiah, I know the plans I have for you... it's in the Bible.

Never seen you before, but like 20 seconds in and it’s so obvious you’re good people.

Our son passed in 2013 and you are in the "club" no one wants to be in but connects us forever. NO ONE can understand or comprehend the loss until it happens to you. There is NO LOSS like the profound loss of child, none. Cling to your faith. Cling to God. STAY BOBER. The first year is, by far, the hardest. You never get over the loss however you learn how to have happiness in your life without guilt. We are not powerful enough to change what happened, we just aren't. God is my strength, my hope, my everything. He has PROMISED us a wonderful reunion in heaven. Lastly, people say REALLY dumb things. They do it because they don't know what to say. Our kids are not angels or floating around in the abyss, THEY ARE WITH JESUS.

As a father to a 9 year old, this really hurts my heart. May God give you and your family peace and hold you in the palm of his hand.

As someone who's lost a child I couldn't click fast enough. So glad to see John's care for this father. I feel this dad's pain. There is nothing worse than losing your baby! My deepest condolences and prayers go out to this family! This should be lesson to all the people on how to handle bereaved family's. 💔

Forty years later, i still break down when the memory of my brother comes up. He died tragically.Lots of regrets that I've reconciled with. Saving grace is he's in peace & waiting me in the future.

@MawMawsGirlz 3 месяца назад

I am so sorry!!!!! I do feel your pain as I, too, lost my 26 year old son. He was my first born and only son. He didn’t have the chance to have children or marry his fiancé. I am praying for you and I know this was a year ago, but time doesn’t matter when you’ve lost a child. You’ll always carry a part of him with you. Every time your heart beats, that’s him saying,”I love you and I’m right here.” He’s a part of you until God calls you home. May God give you comfort and peace for the rest of your life. Live for your son❤️I do that for mine❤ I talk to my son every day and I always will. Sending you hugs ❤ 🙏🏻

My best friend was killed in an accident. He was on a motorcycle on his way back home from his second job when he was struck by a fleeing car. It sucks knowing I won’t be able to see him again. My best way of ‘coping’ is to appreciate that I was a part of his life and to remember all the times we spent together. I’m sorry for your loss. Hopefully you find peace one day. Your son will always be with you… ❤

My heart goes out to this father. Dr.John did a terrific job with handling the call. I love that he asked him to tell who his son was so the rest of the world knows how amazing he was. That was a very sensitive thing to do.

I see what your intentions are. I'm learning from how you speak and see where you are attempting to direct. My nephew and his wife lost a 14 year old in a tragic boating accident this past summer. He was fishing and a jet ski hit him. Died instantly. His older brother had a head injury as a result. My sister is not yet the same. Although she will never be the same, I see and feel her grief. Clicked on this for understanding of how to help. What to say and just listen. Thank you

Dr. John, you handled this beautifully! I have an almost 10 year old and this had tears streaming down my face. This dad is amazing for calling in and sharing his deep grief.
