My First Christmas Holidays Without A Dad

For the first time, I have experienced what a lot of Americans has already faced and that is being without a dad during the christmas holidays.

Dad had alzheimer's disease for over 15 years, and September of 2012 he passed away from respiratory failure due to aspirating pneumonia.

Waking up this morning knowing that he was not here became very heavy  on my heart. I know there are many people who are facing this same problem during these holidays.

I just wanted to write to say I love you dad and miss you very much.

If this is your first holiday without a dad or mother just think and remember all the fun memories shared throughout the years.
