Description: Today is Father’s Day and for many families it is a happy occasion, but for those who have lost a child, it can be a very difficult day. Ken Walsh’s third child Caoimhe was stillborn after he and his wife Linda were told during the pregnancy that their daughter had Edward's syndrome, a life-limiting condition. After the birth, the family were helped through their trauma by the charity Feileacáin, who say it’s important that men are encouraged to speak about their feelings about the loss of a child. Róisín Ingle spoke to Ken about losing Caoimhe, how Feileacáin helped them and why it’s important for bereaved fathers to know that they don't always have stay strong. http://www.feileacain.ie/
