Despite the fact that I haven't been reading you long (maybe since January or so? I forget), I am grateful that I began that journey. Thank you for sharing your heart and soul. It always resonates throughout your posts, especially about those your love and care about so much.<BR/><BR/>Talk about your Dad as much as you need to, this place isn't ours, it's yours, and let it be the place which is cathartic and healing for you. We will always listen. You may think you talk a lot about him, but you always put a refreshing slant on the subject matter; and more importantly, you are helping others more than you know.<BR/><BR/>I may just be another person, but I want you to know that I care about you.

This is a horrible, sneaky disease. <BR/><BR/>Having said that, you and your family are coping with it with such strength and grace. Your writing about him is beautiful, and your love shines through so clearly. You honour your father and your relationship with him with these posts.

Our dads are incredibly important in our lives. You will always look at your own dad and see him as Your dad. It doesn't matter how poorly he is, how little he remembers, he will always be your dad and he will always love you. I don't know what else to say. This has touched me because of my own feelings to my dad. And I think about my dad everyday too. And I always will. Because I love him and he's my dad.<BR/><BR/>Best wishes, Crystal xx<BR/>P.S.
