Forgetting
1 Reply
I'm staring to forget my dad's stories! They were so amazing but there is no one left alive to help me remember them. It sucks bc I want my kids to hear the one day. Anyone else have this problem?

- About my Loss:
- About three years ago I lost my dad suddenly. He was 72 and his health was deteriorating rapidly. Because of Hurricane Katrina, I was laid off from my job as a social worker and I was very pregnant with my first child. My father opened his small business to me and I was blessed with the opportunity to really understand and grow a meaningful relationship with him for the first time in my life. I just fell in love with him and never dreamed that wonderful time would be so tragically cut short. I worked for him for three years when he suffered a heart attack during s scheduled appointment with his cardiologist. I had just come back to work after being on maternity leave for my second child. We had lunch together the both left in opposite directions. A few hours later, his cardiologist called me to tell me my dad had suffered a heart attack and still being worked on. I turned around from Baton Rouge and headed to New Orleans. I wasn't half way there when they called me to tell me he didn't make it. My world fell apart for about a year when I started seeing a counselor. My doctor is helpful, but sometimes once a month isnt enough.
