I Miss My Dad
On Monday, November 12th, 2001, in the early hours of the morning God sent his Angel to relieve you of your pain. I did not tell you how much I love you - I thought you would be here for longer. Nothing could defeat my Dad. I feel so guilty that I did not hug you on Saturday evening and tell how much I love you and how important you were to me. How I wish I could turn the clock back. When I left I did not turn to wave goodbye and get one last look at you. I should have known when you told me how tired you were - did you know? To see you battling on Sunday was so bad and I wish I had not seen you like that but I also hope you knew I was there beside you. I was so sure you would fight and overcome the critical two days but this was not to be. I wish so many things but it is too late and I cannot turn the clock back. I wonder if you knew just how much I loved you and how I admired you - I hope so. I can see you standing in front of me as if you had never left. To know that I can no longer dial your telephone number and hear you say ' Hold on - I need to turn the radio down' before we can speak - we take so much for granted when we shouldn't. I wish I had called you more often - taken the time to come and see you - oh how I wish so many things - I also wonder on that last day if you were scared and did you know you what was going on whilst you were battling to breathe. Dad, it's only been one week - I know they say time heals but .............. I just wish I had told you how much I loved you and needed you. I should be grateful that I was lucky enough to have you for 42 years but I still feel cheated. I hope you are watching over me from above with a big smile on your face and I hear you say 'Please don't cry - I know I must treasure all we shared - I know I must try and be strong but it is hard. I will treasure you in my heart always - I love Dad more than words can ever say
