My Father, the man who raised me with my mother for fourteen glorious years, passed away at 9pm on August 11th 2008. He was a great man who, even though he was disaibled, supported my family. That includes my mother, little sister, grandmother, grandfather, dog, fish, two hamsters, a bird, and me. Both of my grabdparents are bedridden, and my mother works a small job as a cafateria worker at an elementary school.

He died exactly one week before the begining of my freshman year of high school.

I love him dearly and I always will, this entry is merely the by-product of wanting to get my feelings out there and my life back to normal, as normal as it can be without my father sitting on the couch with me and my sister watching wrestling, or cooking dinner for the family, or working on a garage door for a hundred dollars just so he could buy me my band uniform.

I miss him very much, and I hope he's having fun, laughing about all of his family members taking a shot around him as they pulled out the ventalator in his hospitol room. (I wasnt aloud, but I still had the salt and lime without the tequilla, I dont think daddy would have minded)

This is for you and your golden heart dad, we miss you, and love you very much. We'll see you soon enough.
