2026 has been a horrible, terrible year for me mentally, physically, and emotionally. This year has exhausted parts of me I didn't even know could break. ๐
I think, or more so I thought, I was okay.
Then I thought about my dad and his journey. The illness, the treatment, the difficult days, and how he kept going.
I thought I had accepted his passing.
Then grief came back.
I miss you, Dad. ๐ค
