You're story had me teary eyed. I can feel that it is hard for you to forget what happened to your dad because you had a lot of time bonding together. Let me guess, you are teary eyed when writing this article. Everyone of us feel the same way. I would always cry when I write about my mother and my father and how I struggle before I came to where I am now.

I must say that it is really hard when you lost a loved one. As for me my dad died last 2007 and my mother died before I turn one year old. And after all these I still ponder what if they are still alive? But life must go on that is why I learned to lean on my own understanding of life with the guidance my brothers and sister.

I am sorry for your loss. I can feel you because I've been there before also.

Whew! Let's get a little bit of air, inhale, exhale...
