Today would he would be 52.
My husband, more importantly my child's daddy.
I can have another someone... but she will never have another daddy. She can have some really great men who pour into her life in lots of different ways, filling lots of different roles - (and she does - thankfully!) but she will never have another daddy to love her like he did.
This is what is accomplished when the devil has his way and lives are ripped apart by alcoholism, bi-polar disorder and lack of hope and suicide. Please, I BEG of anyone who reads this sad little missal. If you are feeling hopeless, overwhelmed, deeply sad; if you are dependent on a substance to make it through the day or night, if you feel like this world would be better without you in it...PLEASE stop - breathe and talk to someone. There is help and hope for all the feelings you are feeling...don't let the devil win again. Know that your people love you and depend on you being in their life. Reach out to someone...
And if you know someone that is experiencing any of the above feelings... YOU REACH OUT TO THEM. Maybe, just maybe you can help pull them to safety. Maybe you can rescue them just enough to get them the help they need. Maybe they can't tell you what is on their mind...so YOU do something...DO SOMETHING!
It has become a message for me to share...I don't want any other little girl crying herself to sleep over the loss of a dad, or mom or sibling or friend. This was a loss that should never have happened in our world. The scars are healing... but my little girl will never have another daddy.
