On this episode, David Corvi and I explore the many facets of how grief after child loss affects men. The impact of such trauma is often overlooked or downplayed with dads, due, in large part, to cultural norms and unrealistic expectations of men in our society. While men and women grieve differently, men do indeed grieve, but the impact is not often visible. Having experienced the unthinkable pain of losing his beautiful son Charlie to late term stillbirth in October 2021, David candidly shares a dad’s unique journey from brokenness and disbelief to experiencing GOD’s loving kindness and grace, eventually inspiring David to author a book entitled, “Dear Charlie, Letters to my Son: A Father’s Journey of Loss, Grief, and Remembrance.” Additionally, David and his wife, Katherine, have established The Charles Martin Corvi Fund that partners with organizations that support families who have experienced pregnancy or infant loss.
