Two parents who lost a child. Fighting the system to change it. ⚡️ #HughsLaw | Charity supporing families of seriously ill children.

Shorts

In 4 days, I’ll walk the London Marathon carrying 20kg, the same weight my son Hugh was in this video . Hugh died of cancer just two weeks after this video, which was his 6th birthday. Here he is blowing out his last ever candle. There should have been many more 💔 20kg is heavy. But not as heavy as watching your child die. Not as heavy as holding them through chemo. Not as heavy as living every day without them. I never imagined this would be my life as a dad. But it is. And now I walk for Hugh and for every family shattered by childhood cancer. Please, if you can, sponsor me. Every step is for him

3 in 4 suicides in the UK are by men. Men are far less likely to ask for help , but more likely to suffer in silence. Bereaved fathers face significantly higher risks of PTSD, depression, and isolation. But we rarely talk about it. So I am. Grief doesn’t always look how you expect. It’s not just tears or funerals. Sometimes it’s silence. Sitting in the car for 20 minutes, unable to turn the key. Smiling through meetings when your heart feels like it’s collapsed. Waking in the night, dreaming they’re still here. But grief also lives in the everyday moments you don’t see - Seeing someone with a bald head in the supermarket and instantly reliving chemotherapy wards. Wanting to hug a stranger going through treatment and say, “I respect you. I feel for you.” Turning off adverts about cancer. Lowering the volume when the “C word” is mentioned on the radio. Avoiding social events because you just don’t have the energy to explain. As a dad, you’re taught to be strong. To hold it all together. But what if holding it together means never truly healing? Grief doesn’t make you weak. It makes you real. And sharing it might be the strongest thing you ever do. To anyone struggling whether you’ve lost someone or are supporting someone who has: You’re not alone. Please talk. Please reach out. You’re not supposed to carry this by yourself. #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #MensMentalHealth #Grief #ChildLoss #ItsNeverYou #LinkedInVoices #LeadershipThroughAdversity #HughsLaw #MentalHealthMatters #SupportDads

I lost my 6-year-old son Hugh to cancer in 2021. In 2 weeks, I’ll walk the TCS London Marathon with 𝟮𝟬𝗸𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸, the weight Hugh was when he died 2 weeks after turning 6. But really, it’s the weight of grief. The weight of losing a child. The weight of childhood cancer. I’m carrying the names of children for other parents too. This is for Hugh. For all of them. Help me reach £10,000 so we can support other parents who carry this same grief.
