An estimated 1 in 4 pregnancies ends in miscarriage - unfortunately, my wife and I fall into that statistic. I had endless questions about how my wife was coping, how she was and concerned well-wishers asking after my wife. Not one person asked how I was. Not even my parents.

Self-care is perhaps never more important than while grieving. Eating well, staying active and spending time with friends and family all play an important role in a person’s ability to take a healthy approach to grieving. Taking time for yourself, however, is just as critical.

A self-care box is a safe and happy place ideal for someone who is constantly having distressing thoughts and feelings, particularly suicidal after a loss.
