31 | Rev Dr Giles Fraser

Priest, journalist and broadcaster Giles Fraser talks about his brother Jonathan, who died before Giles was born. His parents' grief shaped the way he was parented and has even influenced the way he approached fatherhood. In this episode, he talks about: the sadness that is always close to the surface, about loving someone you never met, philosophy, teenage rebellion and acquiring a new brother at 13. If you have been affected by stillbirth, miscarriage or SID, please be aware that this podcast talks about them all, as well as 'saudade' the Portuguese word which expresses sadness and longing for something that is missing. https://www.childbereavementuk.org/
