even though it´s been a year and 3 months, right now i´m missing you more than ever. I just had a dream about you and the hug you gave me felt so so real. I miss you more than ever, even though you´re not here with me physically you´re still my bestfriend and always on my mind. I´ll keep the memory of you live until i take my last breath daddy, even if i´m 90 years old. I love you forever.
