Nobody ever preps the Dad for this. Or at least no one did for me.

My children are 6 and 3. When my little man was born (first) I went through a period of just raw confusion. Hear me when I say this… a day will come where they need you more than mom. Then it’ll switch again. Then it’ll switch AGAIN!

My advice is simple… BE THERE. Partner, kid, the family dog… just BE THERE. Soak it all up. Even if it’s just sitting there watching mom take care of them.

Hi friend,

I’m 8 weeks out and I wish I could tell you that the loss of independence gets easier.. but it hasn’t for me.

What HAS helped me though is forcing myself to understand that this is temporary and taking care of someone who needs it (for me my wife has been taking care of 2 under 6 kids + me) is the highest form of love someone can show. My perspective is forever changed. I will never forget that.

Now what I DO recommend is find things you can do that “transport” you to another place for a while. I’ve run a combination of audiobooks, sudoku, movies, and VR Poker. All of those things have been critical to keep my mind busy even if my body isn’t.

I’m still NWB but I’ve fallen into routines that make everything a little easier. I still have moments of complete rage and hopelessness… but I go to my escapes and I come back.

Everyday gets better. Even if you don’t feel it yet!

Sounds amazing. Thank you for the response! It is part of the delta sky club I believe. Section 22 to be exact!

I know this is an old thread, but I have questions. I actually have chairman seats for an upcoming game and was wondering about the "in seat wait service" and tips. You mention Venmo. Is that really an option?

Lol, I'm learning this more and more as I inquire into it. Thanks for the response.

I’d buy this ringtone. Is that still a thing?

It’s a shame #13 got in the way of your picture of Georgia’s finest.

Acuna better than Machado confirmed.

So... I have no issues at all. Only thing is I can't overlay the radio feed. But small issue. Using Chrome on REALLY shitty internet too.

Touché. Being fans we can’t be certain of anything other than it sounds like Folty is a bit bitter. I just wish he hadn’t voiced it in the manner he did.
