He was taken by cancer in 2004, and I still miss him... some days worse than others. I'm having a hard time remembering the sound of his voice today, and it makes me worry that I'm slowly forgetting him.
I'm sorry for your loss. I will say that our brains have the capacity to lessen the pain we feel for loved ones gone, horrible accididents,pets missing---all kinds of hurt put upon us. If that wasn't built into us--we wouldn't last long. It's an understandible defense mechanism. I'm not trying to make light of your pain and I'm glad you have had a dad to remember and love.
My Dad passed away almost three years ago - though he is, and will always a oart of me, my children and my Grand daughters. Memories reflect a life lived with curtesy, love and honour, one worthy of respect Our parents and beyond deserve such acknowledgement
You will never forget him. I lost my father last November to cancer. I spend my days trying to do what I think would make him happy and remembering the lessons he taught me. I keep track of all the things that remind me of him so I never forget. I feel like it always keeps him alive in my head...strange, but it makes sense to me haha
