.....no wrong in my eyes

Its been an emotional weekend. No matter how old we get one is never prepared for the illness of a parent. This weekend spending time with my Dad, who has ALS I found myself having to be the strong one for him. Helping him get up, helping him walk, helping him speak....This man who can do no wrong in my eyes.

He is struggling to hold on to his independence...independence that we all take for granted. Mixed emotions from being worried, sad, and just down right angry that this is happening to him. Happening to this Man whom I have looked up to all my life, this man who has always been there to lean on, this man who I used to dance on his feet, this Man who can do no wrong in my eyes.

I just hope he knows how much I love him. The illness does not define him, he is still this man who is strong, wise, spiritual, loved...and the same man who can do no wrong in my eyes.

Tell the ones you love just how much you love them. If this illness has taught me anything its not to take your loved ones for granted. Say it and say it often.....
