"Part of me definitely died when our daughter was born. I was always a free spirited person. I travelled a lot. I never had a boss. I had all the choices in the world. But a lot of that disappeared in order to make things possible for my daughter."
Continuing he revealed that he'd love his daughter to be with him but his worry wouldn't go away.
"It would be great if my daughter was here right now. It’d be so fun to watch her run around the park. But I’d also be worried about her safety. And the diaper bag. And the car seat. And the stroller. And our next meal. And our next place to stay. There’s always a flickering flame of worry that doesn’t go away."And lastly, he revealed what he does to now try and combat the overwhelming feeling when it arises.
"If my wife ever senses that I’m getting overwhelmed, she tells me to go jump in the ocean. And that resets me for a few days. It’s all I need. I just need a little space to be me. Because it can be so easy to get lost in helping a new person become someone.”You can check out HONY here.
