It was killing me to see the strongest man I ever knew wasting away to nothing in that hospital room. "You know he's only hanging on for you," that's what the night nurse said. My voice and heart were breaking as I crawled up in his bed and said, "You can let go now, Daddy. You can let go. Your little girl is ready to do this on my own. It's gonna be a little bit scary, but I want you to know I'll be okay now, Daddy. You can let go."
You can let go.
I love you, Daddy...happy birthday.
