In 2004, I lost my father to brain cancer after he fought it for almost 3 years. It seems like it has been forever, even though it has only been 2 years as of today, April 6th. I remember that day, I was relieved that he did not have to suffer anymore, but I will never have him back.
He was too young, heck, I was too young, to lose my father so early in life. I thought I would write this Blog to vent since I have been in a downer type mood all day. It truly flipped my world upside down when he passed away, since I was still a teenager (18).
He is my hero. He went through three surgeries, something very rare and complex when dealing with the brain. After the second surgery, we were told he had a 90% chance of never speaking again, and he came out talking to the nurses. It made me so proud of him. He made it through the third surgery fine as well, he truly wanted to fight and live. For his effort, I am happy that I had a father like him.
I love you dad, and I miss you every day of my life. You don't have to suffer anymore and for that I am thankful. I hope your happy now.
