I Miss You Dad

Today would have been my father's 77th birthday. But Dad died, very peacefully, in his sleep in April. Although he'd had a lot of medical issues his death came very unexpectedly. As a matter of fact I was in DC visiting the 173rd Wounded Warriors when dad died. Fortunately I was with some GREAT friends when I got the call. I'm grateful I had Concretebob, Yankeemom, Uncle Jimbo, John and Mary and so many others to lean on that night.

No one loved me more or was more proud of me than my dad. I miss him every day. Today the sadness and ache in my heart are pretty intense. SUCKS!

I love you dad.

It totally sucks. I am so sorry you have to join the club. My dad died when he was 59 in Jan 07. When his 60th hit 6 months later it was horrid. I should have been planning a party instead of buying flowers for his grave. THere is nothing that will take away the pain but all I can say is let it out. You have to. Grief is a journey. You can't skip over any of it.

Hang in there.
