16. For the first time in 7 years, I finally hear about my father coming home.
15. The family comes together to take care of grandpa, we all go out to get some dinner.
14. I refuse to speak to my father, despite my mom trying to call him… with a successful call being a year apart.
13. The happy memories of my father have all but faded or have been pushed out of my mind…
12. I got hit by a car. I was fine, but my mom cried and cried, screaming about what if I left her too?
11. Another year with me and my mom, she starts smiling again. We’re fine, as long as she has me...
10. I’m diagnosed with Chronic depression, I don’t really know what it means, I just feel a bit… empty.
9. Dad’s went off to Brazil… mom said he had to be with his family.
8. He went on another logging trip… when will he come home?
7. Me and mom go to Philadelphia. I meet her best friend and his daughters… where’s there mom? Everyone should have one...
6. I come into the kitchen, my father with a Corona bottle in hand and a soulless smile...
5. I wake up screaming about a ghost I saw, he was angry at my dad. The next day, we got a phone call, his ex-wife took her own life…
4. I’m happy that I’m with everyone. Living at home with dad is great!
3. Warm, fuzzy memories. Blurry and hard to remember.

0. I wonder… does my mom wish what every mother does for her boy… that he grows up to be just like his father?
