Dad.
I am in so much pain - even writing this makes me terribly upset. However I know that the last few weeks we spent together were incredibly special. A chance to smile, hold hands, at times say nothing - even though our silence spoke volumes. We made sure that we could both leave with a clear heart and mind. I have such clear memories of my childhood with you - and it is these, combined with my last minutes with you that will somehow guide me through the now.
To say I miss you is a truly awful understatement, I cannot believe that you have gone.
Know that I have and always will love you. So proud of how you dealt with things, i only have good memories.
For now, rest, recover and be waiting.
We will meet again I am sure.
With my eternal love.
Mark
