Hello My Friends...I ask you to PLEASE Like this page on Facebook Boycott Joel Osteen..His view on Parents who have lost a child is ridiculous.....Basically he is a Moron ...saying Parents who have lost a child "need to get over it and stop seeking attention.......He is a 56 million dollar a year Fool PLEASE LIKE THIS PAGE

My dear friend and mentor in traumatic bereavement, Dr. Joanne Kyouji Cacciatore brought to all of our attention that Pastor Joel Osteen has a chapter in his book wherein he is quoted as saying that bereaved parents who lost their only child were still grieving out of "self pity" and because they "like attention". Needless to say, his belief that we bereaved parents are wallowing in our self pity doesn't sit well with many of us. Joanne contacted Joel Osteen and asked him to apologize to all of us, offering to help counsel him in the bereavement that one experiences after the loss of a child (or children). The door was shut in her face, clearly, so she wrote him an open letter. I love her. Please read, and if compelled, share her letter

Sad Dads Club Anniversary


1 year ago this week Barry Kluger invited a group of Dads to a monthly hang at Morton’s in Scottsdale, That night we were interviewed by a reporter named Kevin Kennedy from channel 12, The piece was about Dads who lost a child and also awareness to the Farley-Kluger Bill.
The Reporter dubbed us the Sad Dads Club during interview,

 A couple weeks later we formed the Sad Dad’s Club Social Group and 3 months later Myself AND Theo Soumalis were granted a Dads only group with MISS Foundation. We are now in our 9th month of Support groups for the Dad’s

We have been honored to share children’s stories with many Dads over the last 9 months, and Theo and I would like to say thank you for sharing them with us and others

I wish to thank all those who helped us to this point and to the Dad’s that have joined us here or in support group. Without the help from many, this may have not been a much sought out group for those Dads who share this incredible loss.

On This Father’s Day The Sad Dads wish you a gentle day
Please join us Thursday June 25th ..@6:30pm  MISS Foundation Offices

TV INTERVIEW BELOW FROM 6/2014
