About this listen

Grief is one of the most powerful and complex of emotions experienced by caregivers, but no one talks about it.

Meet Jonathan, the only caregiver to his 14-year-old daughter Grace, who has autism.

This is a father’s story about the wounds caused by the weight of meeting society’s expectations, and the grief of knowing his daughter will never be like others. Listen to how he planned for their future, as he leaned into his grief and came out of it with a sense of purpose, clarity and newfound joy.

Explore SG Enable’s Caregiver Learning Roadmap (CLR) or FutureReady by MINDS for guidance on future care planning for your loved one.

If you would like to learn more about support groups for your caregiving journey, SG Enable provides a curated list here. You can also connect with fellow caregivers and be part of the support network through the CaringSG community or Special Dads for Life.
