Synopsis
In October of 2017 my wife Amanda and I lost our son when he was stillborn on his due date. Our life was turned upside down in an instant but we able to stray strong for one another. Throughout our journey we found that each person who experienced the loss of a child had a different story to tell and thus a different way in which they deal with their loss. Dads & Angels was born out the need to share all of these incredible stories so that other Dads can see that they are not alone.
