Tommorow is my nineteenth birthday and im excited however i cant help but wish to share this memory, this stepping stone in my life with my Dad. He was always there to cheer me up, put a smile on my face and listen to EVERYTHING that i had to say.
My dad died of prostate cancer just over a year ago. What really upsets me is knowing how he suffered. He didnt deserve it, he was the most loving person he could never hurt a fly. He did so much for me and i wish that he could know how much i loved him and miss him. When my father was diagnosed it was already in his bones so nothing could help him he pretty much got a death sentence he said he would have two good years then would deteriorate however he died within one year. Im glad that we where there for him through everything but i cant help think how much happier me, my brother and my mother would be if he was still there. How do you come to terms with something like this.
Even though you wont be there tommorow dad, i just want you to know that i will always love you and will never forget you.
xoxoxo Bridget :)
p.s he always wrote a smiley face on every bithday and christmas card and i will never forget!
