I cant believe, in just a few hrs, I'll be standing before my dad's family & friends, eulogizing @ his funeral. I'm scared reality's gonna whack me in the chest, knock the wind out of me & bring me 2 my knees. I just wonder- have I truly accepted (or even admitted yet) that my Dad's REALLY gone- FOREVER??
