Hey guys. It’s been a very tough day today. I don’t really know how to put this in any other way but today my dad passed away. My sweet, strong, resilient dad left me.
He’s had an infection in his liver for a week and I haven’t seen him at all until today. When I arrived, he was already in a near death state- unresponsive. I had been asking for days to just visit him but was denied every time. When I was breaking down crying and asking my mom why I couldn’t have seen him earlier, she told me he wanted us (my younger brother and I) to visit him when he was stronger and healthier as he did not want us to see him in the state he was in.
Even until the end he wanted to be strong for us. And it’s been really hard for everyone. All my family members were there and I’ve never seen so many grown adults cry like that.
I’m supposed to graduate from high school this year... and my little brother is going into the ninth grade. I wish he could be there.
I’m sitting in my room hugging his pillow and bawling my eyes out. I don’t know how to cope with this and it’s hard to carry on with life when a huge part of it is missing.
