I can't have kids. I see here a lot of happy fathers who share tips and ideas. I have nothing to share, only my sorrow.

Hello there to you, 

Thank you for feeling able and brave enough to share your very personal news. I'm sorry that you are unable to have children. You don't state wether or not you are in a relationship with anyone or have any support, but I would strongly advise you to seek some support, perhaps in the form of counselling, or confiding in someone you can really trust, and let them know how you are really feeling. It is not unusual in circumstances like these to feel a sense of loss, like grief, because having children is something that you really desired but are unable for whatever reason, to do. It is important that you allow yourself time to grieve. There are other ways of becoming a parent through fostering and adoption, if you are in a position to be able to consider this in the future, but I really would advise you allow yourself time to work through your feelings. 

There is also a charity in the UK called "fertilitynetworkuk.org" and they have a helpline 0121 323 5025 and an information line 01424 732361

 

I wish you well and hope that you able to talk with someone and receive the help and support that you are seeking.

 

Kind Regards,

Fegans Parent Support
