If you are a survivor this is a reminder to do something good for yourself; go for a walk, ride your bike, go to see a good movie, and if you feel the need -- it's OK to cry. Some people find it helpful to to be with others who either lost their father or also won't be with family members. Those who will have contact with their families may have to make special plans to debrief with a good friend afterwards.
Like all holidays, it's important that you take time out to celebrate YOUR life. Many survivors have to re-parent themselves, on both father's day and mother's day don't forget to celebrate the parent-within.
