Father's Day

I miss my daddy more than I can say. He died in 1993. A week after Christmas...I followed the ambulance in to to the hospital. I saw the ambulance go by my house slowly, which meant that they were doing CPR...I come from a firefighting/cop family, so I knew what it meant...I have mixed feelings about my father for various reasons...not sure I want to post them here..I haven't thought about this for a long time and it is hard. It makes me want to disappear.

You're not a downer, you're a human being with feelings and family. Don't apologize for how you feel. Let it out so it won't boil over inside you and do damage.:ghug3:praying

((flgirl)) - sorry you're having such a hard day. I find it hard, not because my father has passed away, but because he is still around, but we don't have a relationship. For a number of reasons as well - most of them my inability to forgive or get past the "blame". Both too stubborn to make the first move I suppose. He recently had heart surgery and suffered 3 strokes, so I'm not sure he would be absolutely sure who i was anyway. Reading stories like yours makes me feel even more selfish about it. At least I have the chance.....you don't. and I'm sorry
