Can you believe it’s already mid-June? Even crazier is the fact that Father’s Day is this Sunday! I can’t believe it’s already been a year since we had the pleasure of getting to know four amazing DOC dads in last year’s Father’s Day Tribute series.

As I considered how to celebrate fathers via Discuss Diabetes this year, I thought I would explore a topic that many struggle with – what to get the man that either “has everything” or “wants nothing.”

My daughter and I find ourselves in this predicament almost every year, as my husband falls into the latter category of “wanting nothing.” In fact, when prodded for gift ideas, his general response is the notion that he’s just grateful for everything he already has. Of course, its an answer like this that makes us want to find him an amazing gift all the more.

How do you show the incredible men in your life how much you appreciate them? I figured the best advice would come from fathers themselves, so we asked a few DOC dads to share their favorite Father’s Day gifts and memories with us. Scroll through the slideshow below and you may even find a few ideas for how to honor the special dad in your life this Sunday.

• Happy Father's Day
