((((dalila)))))) Aug. 1 was 8 years since my dad has been gone. I miss him every single day.

Anniversaries just suck. I hope you will be able to find a way to do something nice for yourself and to remember the happy times with your dad. The pain never does go away, you're right, but maybe if you can think of things he used to do that made you laugh, through your tears and pain you can find a way to be grateful for the time you did have.

I know it hurts bad. I wish I could give you a hug for real. Please be gentle with yourself and let me know if you need to talk.

Love, Candy
