MY TAKE ON PHOTOGRAPHY

"The reason why we want to remember an image varies: Because we simply 'love it', or dislike it so intensely that it becomes compulsive, or because it has made us realize something about ourselves, or has brought about some slight change in us. Perhaps the reader can recall some image after seeing of which has never been quite the same."

My Dad

Has cancer and for the first time in my entire life, I feel completely and utterly lost....I've taken for granted that my parents will always be there for me when I need them.  Now the tables are turned and I don't know what to do.  Communication has never been my strong suit.  I just want to crawl into a hole and be left alone... I don't know how I'm going to get through...

My favorite picture of my Dad being surrounded by all of his Grandkids. With the exception of a little baby boy that will be born in December.

  1. Praying for all of you. My husband's father died last year and I can see how lost Mike still is. He tells me often that he wants to hear his voice one more time.

  8. I lost my Aunt (my second mother) in June to cancer. We had 10 months from her diagnosis. The doctor had predicted a year. I will tell you enjoy every moment. Take and enjoy all the time. If at all possible be there. Take each good day as a blessing and each sick day as the gift of another day.

    My hope is your father isn't terminal, because we knew from the begining my aunt was. I still mourn for her. Miss her. Wish I could pick up the phone and call her.

    Be strong and know you are stronger then you think you are.
