He would have been 68 today
Apr 14th, 2010 by Kim
Today would have been my dad’s 68th birthday if he was still with us. Almost six years ago I lost my dad to lung cancer. I miss him every day but on special days like today I really, really miss him. I can remember years gone by having parties for him and of course a special cake so by not doing all of this on this particular day it really does hit home that he is no longer with us. Later today I plan on visiting his grave site. I guess that’s the only way that him and I will be able to celebrate this day together.
I don’t go to my parents’ graves because it just gets me all depressed. I tried it and it didn’t make me feel better at all so now I just enjoy looking at their pictures and remembering the good times. Sorry your dad died so young. We miss our parents too, Gerard and me. Maybe it would help if you made a cake anyway.
