I don't think I know what poly means.  That was really nice of your dad to draw that picture for you.  He was a good artist.  It looks like he did that in pen, and that is the hardest way to draw, in my opinion.  You can't erase.  If you make a mistake, you've some how got to make it work in the picture.

jb - your dad drew that?  I didn't know he was an artist.  You must have gotten your talent from him.  It is quite a nice drawing.  He did the facial features real nice.  Did he do it for you when you were sick - was it a get well card for you?  Why does he have Sharp on the shirt?  I only ask, because Sharp is my last name since I got married.  You have a very talented family.  Your dad made a very nice picture.

Thank you, Storyas!

Casandra - when my mom died, I had a dream a few days later.  In that dream, my mom was laying on this dark blue couch we owned when we were kids.  She sat up and looked at me.  She was wearing the same dress I took her to the hospital in, but it was clean instead of having vomit all over it.  And her stomach was not swollen like it was when I took her to the hospital.  It was flat again.  She looked much younger like your dad looked much younger.  She looked at me and said, "I'm feeling much better now."  Then, she either left or I woke up.  I don't remember which.  I think they are young and healthy again on the other side.  I think that is why you saw your dad that way.  I am sorry you are having a hard time.  Eight months isn't that long really.  I was still heavily grieving at 8 months.  My dad has been gone 18 months this month, and i still am grieving.  It's better than it was at 8 months, much better actually, but I am still grieving.   Like I said in my earlier post about seeing Neopolitan ice cream at the story yesterday and started crying cuz it was my dad's favorite.  I don't know how long it takes, but it does get a little easier every month.  Blessings to you my dear.

It's been 8 months since my father passed and some days are better than others. The last few days, I just found myself thinking about him often. Then last night I had a dream and he was sitting there across the table from me smiling, looking like he did when I was younger and he was much more healthier. We didn't say anything, we just smiled at each other. I knew he was checking up on me, letting me know he was still around even though I couldn't see him or talk to him. And while it is still hard for me every time I dream about him, it made me feel so much better that I did have that dream. I know the pain of losing him will never go away but I am glad I am learning how to deal with it better than I have been. I can actually talk about him more now and that makes me happy. I would be terribly sad trying to avoid conversations about him and/or about my feelings about him. Just thought I'd share how I was doing since it's been so long since I actually posted here.

Hi Jb - please tell me the story behind that picture you posted.   I know how you feel about your dad's chocolates.  I can't eat a Kit Kat today cuz my dad loved them so much.  I found a wrapper once in his stuff after he died and I put it in my box of his stuff that I was keeping to keep it.  I just could not throw it away, because I knew his beautiful hands had opened it and his mouth had enjoyed the chocolate inside.  I need to start writing letters to my mom and dad and taking them and pictures to their grave site.  They both loved pictures so much.  My dad's cat that lives here with me loves to sit on my lap even if the keyboard is there.  He's not much for music though.  I've never seen him respond to that.  He likes to sit in front of the tv though and bat at the moving things, but the sound he doesn't seem to care much about.

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
