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.

His Ultimate Favor Is Me by ICessEYEDAN

In a world where love and betrayal intertwine, my life took a devastating turn on a rainy night. I found myself alone, cast out by my cruel stepmother after the death of my father. Homeless and heartbroken, I wandered the streets, tears streaming down my face, clutching the remnants of a life I once knew. Just when hope felt like a distant memory, a mysterious car pulled up, offering me a lifeline. Inside was a reserved CEO, a man burdened by secrets, who unknowingly held the key to my past. He offered me shelter and solace, but as our paths intertwined, he remained silent about the fateful event that brought us together four years ago when I saved his life. Unaware of our shared history, I struggled to trust again, navigating the complexities of my feelings for this enigmatic man who had rescued me once more. As I began to unravel the layers of his guarded heart, I was forced to confront the shadows of my own past and the painful memories that lingered. "His Ultimate Favor Is Me" is my story, a poignant tale of love, resilience, and the unbreakable bond forged through sacrifice. Will I discover the truth of my past before it's too late? And can I find a way to heal the wounds that threaten to keep me from the love I never knew I needed? Created: 10/14/24 Published: 10/14/24

Noah (Obsessions in Overdrive #1) by MarcelinePierson

I've always had a feeling that I would die young. Ever since I started pondering on deaths door I've had this feeling. I could care less about the hell and heaven shenanigans, but death. I want it. The end of my life. I want to be in my suit, in my coffin, in the ground and my soul to be gone. I've been waiting for 16 years, yet no sign of death opening his door no matter how many times I ring his doorbell. Yeah, I enjoy thinking about my end. Especially at moments like this... *** #1 physical #1 cuteguys #1 addiction #2 self-esteem *** Started: 7 November 2022 Finished: 18 April 2024

Dear Fathers of the Fatherless Children by cjacks1124

The choices we make in life can make or break us. However, some people make choices out of selfish reasons; not knowing their actions at the present time will have repercussions in the future. We are told not to worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow is not promised. That could be very well true. However, what if tomorrow is promised; how would you reexamine yesterday? What would you do differently today? How would you prepare for tomorrow? We are told to live for today, however, the question is-how many people live for "today?" If you are living for "today" at the end of the day, could you say you took care of all of your responsibilities? Each day has a purpose; each day creates a memory, and each day should be precious. Ask yourself-did you put your best foot forward? Or did you point fingers at everyone else instead of focusing on what you need to improve? The important question is: at the end of each day, are you satisfied with the decisions you've made? Dear Fathers of the Fatherless Children: Do you know your sons and daughters are AMAZING? They are full of life and they are truly a blessing. Your sons and daughters need you in their lives. Fathers of the fatherless children, your sons and daughters crave your presence and your support. They want you in their lives more than you will ever know. Fathers of the fatherless children, open your eyes and know your presence is very critical. Be your son's hero and let him know he can conquer the world. Be your daughter's first knight in shining armor. Be a part of your son's and daughter's success instead of their pain

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.

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..."

Catastrophically Carla (Lesbian Story) by xpaaulettex

Ages 14+ (lesbian concepts and some profanity) This is not your everyday love story, okay? It's not a chick flick either. The events and themes within my pages have meaning, depth, truth-and most of all, reality. You are about to be taken on an adventure about a girl who's life is not like everybody else's. I look like a normal teen girl, I mean, I have hair and two eyes and two hands and feet like everybody else, but I couldn't feel more different. I have two moms, yes. Let's just get that out there before you start reading and close my diary like everyone in my life has shut me out of theirs. All I want is a normal life with normal friends who don't judge me because of my home situation. I don't even remember the last time I went on a sleepover or called somebody my age. I don't mean to be a downer, because it does get better. Life gets better. Struggles are only temporary, I know that now. And by my last words reach your eyes, I've come a long way, and have grown to see potential in myself. I'm sharing this with you because I want to make a difference. I know now that I'm not the only one in the world that feels alone. I've been there, done that, and there's more loneliness to come, but for now, I feel more prepared for it. I know how it feels to sit by yourself at lunch every day and how it feels to watch others go to prom with dates and feel like shit because you don't think you'd even have any friends to go with. Please ready my diary. I am much older now, and much more wiser, and I can't wait for you to realize the potential in yourself, too.

47 Letters to Husbands by airolgloria

Losing someone who once lit up your life is like losing a piece of yourself. In the aftermath, I searched for that lost spark, tried to rise from the depths of despair, but was haunted by shadows of doubt and negativity. How do you go on when the person you cherished most vanishes without a trace? Alice disappeared suddenly, leaving me in the dark, wondering endlessly what I could have done to drive her away. In my endless grief, with no one to confide in, I turned to writing letters-letters to husbands who never responded. Yet, through some twist of fate, these letters became a book, a chronicle of my sorrow and longing. This book is a tribute to Alice, released on her 20th birthday. It is my hope that she, wherever she may be, will accept this as a gift-a testament to the bond we once shared, and the impact she had on my life.

Doubts 2 by SherryB915

Part 2 of "Doubts" It was that same feeling I felt deep inside me the day my grandparents left me. My stomach began to cringe. My throat was in knots. My breathing had gotten hard. My instincts were telling me something just wasn't right. I felt useless and alone... I had always knew pain my whole life but this was next level. That feeling of holding back and regret filled my veins with agony. I was lost in my thoughts. My heart felt colder and colder with every minute that passed by. Who am I ? Who am I really ? What is my purpose in this life that I lived? That I once knew ..... why did this bad luck fall upon my life? What did I do to deserve this ? I'm cursed. I have to be. I cried so much in that hospital bed that no tears seemed to want to fall anymore. I had no tears left in me to shed. When Akeem left this room, I knew it would be the last time that I would see him. My better half. My Ace. My love. My husband. My life. Gone. Forever. It wasn't confirmed but I knew it. I just knew it. Life fucked me hard. So why not throw it back.
