acceptance dad daddysgirl death depressed diary farewell father-daughter journeytorecovery letters letterstobeyond parkinson recovery restinpeace sad short unsent

My father was someone who wished to get his story out there, he wanted to share his life and struggles through reading (and later his struggles with Parkinson's) to the world in hopes of giving someone else out there like him courage to keep fighting and keep pushing.

I write these letters to him, a father who left too soon, knowing he will never see them. In hopes of feeling connected yet accepting the loss of him.

I invite you to read to follow me through my road to recovery in hopes to show people that it's ok to miss them, it's ok to cry, it's ok to be angry, you don't need to forget them. It's ok to miss them yet want them in your lives.

This story is personal but it's here to be read to help whoever needs that extra push, to show them you are not alone in your battle.


These letters are dedicated to my dad who was suffering with Parkinsons-Plus, and passed away from a heart attack on April 18th 2019.

Not me. (2023) by MineOnlyFriend2

so, I've been struggling for a long time now, and I never told anyone about it. I've never opened up. but I met someone who understands how I feel, and I'm beginning to feel again. I don't know how to do it, but I finally feel I can fight. I've been so exhausted. I'm not better, I'm not sure if i ever will be, but I'm not numb, not entirely. I can't say how I'm feeling, or what i am going to write, but if you want it, it's here. This is for you. For everyone who was made to be the villain by those meant to be by their sides. For everyone with a sensitive heart made to grow strong much too quickly. For everyone who struggles to get out of bed in the morning. For everyone who never could find the words to say why. For everyone who struggles to feel and for everyone who feels too much. For everyone who had to pick themselves back up. For everyone who had to parent themselves. For everyone fighting an invisible battle. For everyone who has been underestimated. For everyone who has to flee to other worlds to cope. For everyone who found other means to silence their voices. For everyone who was silenced. For everyone who was over powered. For everyone who was made to be less. For everyone who had to watch someone else suffer and stay silent. For everyone asking themselves, why? Why would you do this? What did I do? Why is this happening to me? It was never your fault.

Fix Me, I'm Broken by Ana11e1y

Walking into an empty house is normal to me. I guess I got tired of saying 'I'm home' when nobody is home to reply. It wasn't always like this. I remember when our family was close. Now we don't see each other any more. We don't talk to each other. We don't eat with each other. We don't ACKNOWLEDGE each other. This all happened after my 'Mother' killed herself. My father blames me. This is my story about how I learned to not count on anyone else but myself. I'm broken. I'm used. No one can fix me. But when the New Boy in town tries to fix me, everything will change. Good change or Bad change, I don't know. Only time will tell. I want to enter this story in the #Wattys2015 please help me out and vote and comment on my story. I'll really appreciate it!!! #Wattys2015 COPYRIGHTED Â© 2014 BY Anallely ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Â®

The Light and the One Just Like Me by HumanFailureLC

"I don't understand him, and I don't think I'll ever do. The way he thinks, the way he looks at the world, it's just confusing. But it hurt. My chest wouldn't stop hurting, no matter what I did. It was never like this. With her, it didn't hurt this bad. With them, it didn't hurt this bad. It hurts... It hurts... Someone... make it stop... Please..."

The Path I Crave! by PriyaCb

Dear Adi, I start by asking you to forgive me. I know it's impossible to forgive me this time. I did lie to you. I'm going away forever. I know you will tear down the dam world to find me. Please don't waste your time trying to find me. You have your entire life ahead. Treasure it. Make it so wonderfully that one day when If I dare to come back, you can tell me all about it. I love you. Don't ever have a doubt about my love for you. You are the only man I truly love. Every day I spent with you I loved you more. You are the second best thing that ever happened to me, off course the first is Rishi. The last couple of month with you, were the best. I will cherish until my last breath. Every bit of it. You have thought me how to love selflessly. You have loved me more than half your life and I want you to love me until your last breath. But I want you to find a sweet girl (she better not be better than me). And you better not love anyone as much as you loved me, move on with your life Don't let me die from your heart. Don't make me a burden in your heart. Cherish me in there. As long as I live, I want to be in your heart. I don't care if you fall in love again but I do care about staying in your heart. Don't throw me and I promise I will always love you. I know I'm hurting you terribly, believe me I feel terrible already writing this letter to you. I hope the happy memories subsides the pain in your heart. Always and Forever - Yours and only yours Chandni

All The Mistakes We Make by CoffeeAndSilverInk

"There's only so many times I can put my heart back together" "Why are you so sure I'll break it again?" 🖤🤍🖤 No one said university would be easy, but between assignments and relationships, it gets a little too messy. Nicole doesn't do feelings. She barely does friendships. Escaping a life of pain, she drowns herself in distractions. Party. Drink. Repeat. Always on the brink of losing herself. The only person she trusts is her best friend, Miguel. Miguel isn't the relationship type. He's never had a reason to be, and his reputation proves it. Until a kind-hearted waitress makes him question who he wants to be. Alice, dreaming of love like in the movies, falls face first on every try. She refuses to be fooled again, but no matter how hard she tries, her heart keeps tricking her. When she stumbles across someone whose first instinct isn't to judge her for her dreams, Nicole's warnings are in vain. They thought they could keep their walls until Andrew came crashing in. He didn't seek their acceptance, only an escape from his life. He was never meant to break them apart. But mistakes are easy to make. Especially when you're young. 🖤🤍🖤 Start: 07/01/2022 End: 03/07/2023 Achievements: 🥈Second place Drama winner in IdolVerse Icons Awards 🥉Third place Romance winner in The Savant May Awards 🥉Third place Young Adult winner in The Heart Awards 🏅Featured in The Project Athena

Unlovable Me {BoyxBoy} by xink0heartx

It's been so many years and my dad continues to hurt me daily. How long can I continue to live like this before it all comes to an end. It hurts and I'm tired. Sometimes I wish someone was here to swoop in and save me from my misery. Anything is better than this. . . . . . I apologize, this story was taken off wattpad for whatever reason. I tried getting help from online workers but none replied and I couldn't get it back. I'm just going to reupload. The reason why it was taken off it beyond me. Please give it some love, I broke down like crazy when it disappeared because it was my most popular story and I had worked incredibly hard on it only for it to go poof.

He was gone but his promises won't stop haunting your mind. "I cannot forget it, unless I die.."

Maybe, There is a Happy Ending by melina_strangio

"There were times of hardship when people forget the courage they need to keep fighting; and survive. But I think as long as we have something or someone to believe in, to keep close in our hearts, courage will never truly leave us. We only have to reach deep in our heart to find it." I never thought I was going to escape my abusive parents. I could no longer see that one light at the end of my tunnel. I was trapped, no way to escape. You would never believe that one trip to the New York Hospital could change my life drastically, and not in the way you guys are thinking. Not negatively, but positively. Thanks to my Doctor and his son, I could finally say goodbye to my dark past and say hello to my bright future involving a massive emotion... LOVE. So, Maybe... There is a Happy Ending.
