I'm so glad my father is still alive and in my life

Sometimes it's just good to talk to the old man. He gets so excited to see his grand children. My mother doesn't allow him to have bad foods often (which is why he's so healthy) but you should have seen him light up like a child when I offered to get ice cream after I took him out for his birthday dinner

Cherish your father's goats who still have then around. You never know when they could pass and it is important for a son to be close to his father.

The cancer got my dad seven years ago. Cherish your father, indeed.

Caveot: this doesn't apply to pieces of shit.

I can relate. It got my father too back in 2010. He was a good man. I’m still broken.
I’m not broken, but you know what I mean.

I do know what you mean. My Father, Grandfather, and God Father all died within six mon of each other. Shit my dad and grandfather died like three days apart. It was a rough year, but it was also a kick in the ass spiritually. Like "Dude, you got this? If not you better figure it the fuck out."

All my male role models. If that's not a push to masculinity, I'm not sure what is.

Prior to my father dying, my best friend died from cancer. I think that tuned me to deal with dad dying. Man, I can’t imagine having three in the same year or less.

Bro, that's wild. My friend lost her battle with cancer a couple years before all that. It was pretty fucked up. One minute she was laughing, the next minute she was on the floor. I watched EMS do chest compressions on her to no avail. We were celebrating my birthday and she just fell out. Non Hodgkin's lymphoma. That shit really did a number on me. I'm not sure why I survived the aftermath, it really wasn't by choice. I made an effort to OD and I still woke up the next day. That was thirteen years ago. I met the woman who would be my wife just a week after that and I haven't fucked around with opiates since, but that shit really fuckin broke something in me.

My dad's alive and tried to kill me by driving us off the mountain while on the way to the hospital for my c section.

I don't call him.

Yeah, I haven't seen my father since 2012, good riddance.

My Dad is a career piece of shit currently half way through a 10 year Federal prison sentence.

My awesome father died 13 years ago 9/4, just this week. Everything in the family went to hell after that. My mom showed her true colors,(they were married for 45 years) the siblings all took off different ways.
Dad and I may have had our differences, bet he was always accepting of that and always a comforting soul for me and many others. He is sorely missed, as life has been surreal since.
Now, make no mistake, my life is great and things are good, I just wish he was here to enjoy it all. He really did relish in the accomplishments of us kids, and he has two new grandsons since then.
Man, do I miss him.

I envy you guys who have good parents. Both of my parents were fucking awful when it came to raising kids.
