As he desperately fought to survive long enough for me to say , I arrived at the hospital in time to hear his silent, lonely, painful soul to me. I heard my dad’s final message loud and clear.
To most people, we lost the first registered caregiver in Montana. To me, I lost my King and my best friend. His has made me feel more spoiled than ever, bringing me the most friends from the community! They’ve been keeping me , helping me heal, and they wait with me for my mom to come home from prison. When I fall, they bring into my life, wipe my tears and make it easy to get back up.
I wish I could thank my dad for all the amazing people his death has brought me, and all his selfless . If I could, I would especially thank him for all the pain and that has led the best of the best fighters to me. I would thank him for standing the food bank lines when I was a teenager and he was and we were hungry. I would tell him how I appreciate him for spoiling us with food when he had money and I would thank him for to give back to the food banks! I’d hug him for going broke to buy me a(n) and dryer when I was a young mom, so my kids and I didn’t have to go to a dangerous laundry to wash clothes.
