Why is goodbye the hardest thing to do?
Watching Scrubs (season 6 episode 15) made me reflect on the past year floating between the moments my dad was there and when he was gone.
Deep down I had always hoped that he would pull through by some miracle. I never had the chance to actually say goodbye while his was still hanging in there. I could always chalk it up to the fact that the whole event, from healthy man to passing away, was quick; less than 3 weeks. However the truth is I was never ready to accept reality.
Oddly enough, it took a TV show to really drill home to me the stark truth about myself. I was never ready to let go of my dad.
This is the man, my father, about 3 and a half years ago holding his grandson (my sister's first born), Benjamin.
May he rest in peace.

Hugs, its never easy letting go of someone so dear to you. My nan passed away when I was 13, and till today, I can still remember her smile. She passed away so suddenly from a stroke. It takes time to ease the pain, once again, my condolence, and may God bless your family and heal their wounds as well as yours.
