My daddy Melbel: Last night I was in chat when my phone rings, look to see who it is and it's my daddy for the 4th time today. I answer it to hear my mom (step mom) on the other end sobbing.
She tells me to meet her at the hospital my dad has had what they believe is a heartattack. I went for laughing and playing to total numbness in seconds. I stood here for 15-20 minutes before I could even leave......and that took 2 things. 1 a great friend telling I will regret it if I don't go (thank you BTW) and 2 something my daddy always told me, It's ok to be weak but weakness has moments.
I get to the hospital and it was so hard to see him! Here is this man that is my idol, here is a man that raised me as a single dad for alot of years and here is the man that was in the Marines, strong and full of life...laying pale, hooked up to all these wires and is in and out of consciousness. He takes one look at me and says princess is here and I lose it. I am crying so hard, scared that not only my daddy but my best friend is going to die and the pain takes over. I lay down next to him and cry....he started talking about my first day of kindergarten. Melissa you with your blonde, curly hair in pigtails, a yellow dress with white dots and matching socks and shoes on looked at me when I was leaving and asked why all the other kids were crying. He told me because some of them are scared not to have their mom or dad with them and said I know you have to leave but I know you will come back.....why he told me this I don't know but it calmed me. Daddy has that way.
So, I left the hospital last night thinking of all the memories I have with my daddy and how much he means to me. Knowing that my life is so much greater because of the type of man he chooses to be. Always believing in me even when I didn't believe in myself, never judging me when I messed up and always being there with open arms and a tissue when I need him to be.
As I was leaving they were putting him in a real room and waiting on test. The doctor told me I should go home, nothing I could do....I already did more then I know. So, I sit here waiting to hear something from my mom, knowing I have to be stuck at a 6 hour long training today. I want to be there with him and will be later I guess.
Sorry, for this but I needed to just put it all out there as I can process it.
