for one and all > Memorial ideas for Dads
I don't know, my husband just seems not to want to talk about it, and has put everything I've given him away, just stuffed it somewhere.
The mister is still plotting his tattoo. He's not remotely a tat guy, so this is kinda a big deal, and he wants everything just so. He's done a bunch of research and talking, but 1.5 years later, and no tattoo. I think it's one of those things that it will become permanent once it's there in ink so he's dreading the actualization. And I can sympathize with that.
Right now he still wears a blue plastic bracelet (like the Live.strong) ones with her name and birthday on it, and he's worn it since the blue hospital one fell off his wrist.
I have read of the couple getting the same bands with the baby's birthstone, with baby's name engraved on the inside.
I have also read of men working on a sculpture over time.
Maybe sometimes they do not need something so material, but just time and space, to process everything.
I have seen lots of ideas for Mom's to memorialize their lost babies (ex. jewelry, etc), but what about Dad's? Anyone have any ideas?
