9 years today. Seems like it's been a lot longer honestly. Feels like a lifetime. I really hope I've made you proud. ... Though I'm guessing I haven't. I'm a bit of a failure now'a'days. I think it's hard for mom to love me sometimes. This year's been really hard. Because she fought cancer, just like you. But she won. Now I know how much it took from you. And I feel selfish, for feeling this weak. But man if you were here, I think it'd be easier Because even thought I'm a failure I know you'd still love me And I could really use that right now To hear you say it But we don't always get what we want Otherwise, You'd still be here.

Miss you a lot, Dad.
