Hi Suszanne, it is good to see you here You know she is so right. Time does heal all wounds. Yes it is eaiser said than done, but it does happen, and yes it does hurt, but that is all part of the healing process. Your dad is always going to be with you, the memories will never leave you. When you feel the cool breeze, the heat from the sun, and the gentle fall of the rain, that is your dad letting you know that he is there and that he always will be there. All of the life advice that he gave to you, all of the stories that he told you, he is still and always will be with you. It is natural to always miss him, that is natural, but it does get eaiser. Death and the loss of someone very close to us is something that we all will have to deal with. It is appointed once to every man to die, that is something that we cannot change, nor can we prepare oursleves for no matter how hard we try. It does get better, I promise it will. Hange in there and be strong, you have a lot gong for you. sherry/smomdukes
