Dear Dad,

I had a realization in therapy today. I never really realized it until now.

I told my therapist that whenever I used to feel sad, I knew that you could make me laugh so I would call you. Not having that available to me anymore has been such a hardship. I can't believe how much I need it. I miss you so much, Dad.

But things are slowly getting better. Therapy is helping. Meds are starting to help again. I hope it continues that way.

It's been hard but things will get better. I need to hold onto that thought.

Love always,

Chrissy

Hey, Dad. It's a bit late but I finally made it to 40. It was a weird day. I went to bed sad at the end of it and decided I don't want to look the same for my 41st. I need to make changes. Picking up the pieces is hard though. I don't know if I'm lazy, in denial, or what's happening.  I wish I knew what you'd think of the Covid-19 situation though. I know you'd wear a mask but there's a sister of mine we might laugh over. You know how it goes. I miss you, Daddy. I don't know what I want to do with myself anymore. I have a vague idea but I can't seem to commit or motivate myself to it. July was a pretty shitty month. Dating is depressing. No one seems interesting after a few conversations. I can't hold it up on my own, you know? People don't seem to get that. I'm having trouble sleeping again, lately. I hope that doesn't last much longer. It sucks. Anyway, I'll go try to get some sleep. Love you, Dad. xoxo Chrissy

Hey, Daddykinz. I know it's been a while. Not much has changed, I don't think. The pandemic is still happening and I really ought to schedule my vaccination. I got a new barbecue! A Weber charcoal grill. I love it! I wish I could cook for you sometime. It's the May 2-4 long weekend and you'd be so happy right now, setting up your trailer for the summer. It broke our hearts to sell it. I wish you were still here, getting ready. It sucks. I miss you always, Dad. I keep thinking of the last time I held your hand and when I gave you water. I wish I had done more, said more. We joked and worried about your farm in Farmville the other day. You had so much fun with the silliest things. I love you so much, Dad. Wish you were here. <3 ~Chrissy P.S. I gave up pop and junk food, by the way. I've been sleeping a whole lot better.

Dear Dad, I hope what I did today is going to help. Medical leave might give me the time to strengthen myself up again. I just want to be able to do stuff again without it being a struggle. I hurt everywhere. I don't know why, but it sucks. My arms ache, my neck hurts, my legs too. I just don't want to be in pain anymore. I really hope counseling gets me results. I've put it off too long. I talked a long time with my Mario tonight. He's such a funny guy. I miss him a lot but talking to him felt good. He's going to Europe for a few weeks and I hope he really enjoys himself! I need to sleep now. Today was rough and I'm exhausted. I'm going to try to keep my sleep schedule even though. Goodnight, Daddy. I love you so much and I miss you. ~Chrissy
