Helping Men Find Healing After Lost Fatherhood

Almost Daddy: The Forgotten Story

The Forgotten Story

Ben had plans. He had dreams. Yet in a moment, and a moment beyond his control, fatherhood was lost…and Ben was adrift. A ship without a rudder being pushed by an unknown wind….he was almost daddy. This is an invitation to walk this path with Ben. The journey from original pain to healing is a winding, twisting road that no one should walk alone. Perhaps healing can be found and relationship restored with God. Because alone, healing rarely comes.

Greg Mayo

Almost Daddy was written to start the conversation about men healing from lost fatherhood to abortion. Since the novel’s release, the mission has grown and expanded. Today, Almost Daddy represents not only a step on a healing journey for men, but also an invitation to join the conversation about Authentic Masculinity and healing from Father Wounds.

Through engaging live talks and keynote events, Greg brings the message of hope and healing to groups across the US. Each talk is followed by an open and honest Q & A session, punctuated by the idea of “ask me anything.”

It is in this environment, Greg believes, we all have a chance to learn, grow and find the help we need.

Endorsements

The story of Ben in "Almost Daddy" is an odyssey on many levels. Through a character many men (and women) can relate to in one aspect or another, Ben's journey takes us through the pain of a young life. Pain from the "what if's" that haunt us, to failed relationship woes, to betrayal, and the pain of the all-too-common uncharted drifting through a life without true purpose or meaning causes.

But the pain is a crucible -- Ben discovers love, life, and purpose in his life. And especially -- my biggest takeaway -- how to forgive yourself.

Humorist

Greg captures the heart and mind of the man who becomes a father, only to find himself with empty arms. As a society, we make men feel that they have no voice in the matter of abortion. Walking this journey of pain and heartbreak that turns into healing with purpose is an option for every man with abortion in his past. Greg does a wonderful job of drawing us into the process of recovery and finding peace. I would hand this book to any man who confesses his loss. I would invite them to seek healing, and this could be the very tool to open a walled-up heart that fears the reality of the pain. Thanks, Greg, for allowing your story to be one that unlocks the path to healing!

I am the Director of Hearts Restored of Clarity of SC IN and will use this at our 7 centers!

Before a Man Says Yes to Abortion

This video provides an opportunity for the man who's significant other is in a crisis pregnancy situation to pause for a moment and hear words from a man who has been there. Abortion is a man's issue and the pain that often follows it can be avoided.

By the time I was in high school I knew I wanted to write books. Even then there were a few authors whose stories had touched me deeply. I thought that, if I could tell a compelling story that communicated a deep truth, I could be a positive influence in the world.  Back then I…

The Clinic Steps

The first abortion loss I experienced was over 30 years ago. The pathway from then to now, as far as recovery goes, has been well documented in this space…so I won’t go into that again.  But we talk about recovery as being a journey and not a destination. For that reason, I share the following. …

Abortion Recovery From the Beginning
