Emotional Day But I Didn't Eat
Sep 08, 2014
Hello everyone yesterday was a very emotional day for me. Me and my family were invited to a donors picnic for my father. They had food everywhere and my emotions were all over the place. But I used my emotional state to focus on honoring my father. You see my father told me and my family when the Good man above came to get him he didn't want no funeral he wanted to be cremated. I am my father's only daughter and I am a daddy's girl it bothered me that I could not honor him with a funeral but I wanted to fulfill his wishes. So when I got the call about honoring him for being a organ donor I was so excited. So knowing I would be a wreck and food in the past helped me. I went to the wishing well and released balloons with a message to my father telling him how much I loved and missed him really gave me closure .And before I left I was approached by a donor receipant of my father's organs and it really touched me because she thanked me and my family and expressed how my father's willingness to give his organs so someone could live just sent me so emotional and she wanted us to stay in touch and this helps me deal with me losing him but know I have a special friend his receipant of his organs so its like I still have him because he lives within my new friend .
