You don’t have to get this, I need to make sense of things.
A year ago today my dad was rushed to A&E. A year ago today my entire life would change and I didn’t even know it. This year has been one of the most painful years, I have grown up so much following the first few months of 2011. I had to do things in them months I never thought I would have to do. I’ve struggled so hard this last year to deal with the things I had to see and had to do during these times. This day in 2011 has taken over my life, my personality, my relationships, friendships, everything. I can’t even explain what or how I’m feeling on this day in 2012. As many negatives as this has cause - my dad is still here, stronger than ever in 2012 a year on from a life changing, a near life taking experience for my dad. Feeling a lot of respect for all the nurses, doctors, intensive care nurses/doctors, high dependency unit nurses/doctors at Furness General and also at Lancaster hospital that kept my dad alive. This changed my dad and is still changing him. Although he is making choices I don’t agree with, I need him to still show me his recovery and that he isn’t going to be in hospital because of what he’s doing to himself. I need my dad to be around. Tomorrow, is the day in 2011 I said goodbye to my dad believing he wouldn’t make it through the night. Tomorrow, in 2012 is the day that I start my recovery. I love you, Dad.
