I miss you dad I just want you to know that life isn´t the same without you. it hurts to know someone can be full of happiness and love and then just be gone... the last time I remember seeing you was to days after Valentine´s Day, I made you card and a little charm bracelet
I remember overhearing you, Mom and the doctor talking about you being taken off your medicines that kept you alive. I didn´t think anything of it because little me thought that you were invincible you were invincible and that you could live forever. In my heart, I think that you´re still alive. At least I got to say goodbye.
