Monday 2nd March. A day that I will never forget and one that I think will haunt my Mum. Went to work, quiet day in shop then phone call from Mum saying need to come home Dad having stroke. Kelly the girl I work with drove to where Mum and Dad were and she then came back to tell me Dad was going down hill fast. Ambulance arrived after about 45 minutes and Mum came to collect me. Fetched Joe from college, which was funny cus neither of us knew where it was. Dropped Joe at home then shot off to the hospital. Sat for about an hour in the relatives room and really started to worry.
Got let into resus to see dad he looked so weak and scared I just wanted to cry.
Two strokes and a valve in his heart had also split.Really not well.

Dear Daddy
I just wanted you to know.........
When I first met you I was jealous of your perfect children, they were so clever and they seemed to have perfect lives. The hours you spent taking them on holidays, teaching them to count with jelly beans and even the Saturday morning that was time you made just to be with them. I was also afraid that you would hurt my Mummy or take her away from me.
You let me join your life, took me on holidays, helped me with my homework and even taught me to shoot and drive. You let me become your little girl and share a piece of your heart. Thank you
I know that I haven't always been an easy kid to deal with, I messed up at school, I started smoking and caused so much trouble it's untrue. I was a complete cow and thought I knew everything, thought that you and Mum were ganging up on me and life was so unfair. I was horrible and I am so so sorry.
My real father wasnt very nice and I could talk to you about things that worried me, I would sit on your knee and have a cuddle and you would wipe away my tears when I was frightened or sad. You would watch me ride the horses help me build jumps or even come out hacking with me
I hear you and Mum fight and scream just like an old married couple but I have also heard you both laugh, you make little things, like breakfast or will brush Mum's hair, you even took me out on a date.
Me and Mum both know that you are poorly, she took you on knowing that you were a complete fruit loop, but that was ok. Your head was totally screwed up and your health wasn't too bright, you had a bad back, you had a bad leg, you were falling to bits, those things did not matter because you were my Daddy and I loved you. You have given us a couple of scares in the past and spent so much time in hospital that they all know your name but whatever happened you still always had time for Joe and me.
Monday you scared me I heard the gurgling noises that you were making down the phone and heard Mum sobbing as she tried to talk to you begging you to hang on, I was at work calling an ambulance and tellng them to hurry up.
When we got to the hospital you looked so weak and scared, it seemed like you would break. I have never seen you so ill and I really thought the one man that I could rely on, trust and the one man who would always be there for me was leaving.
Daddy, I know that you are really poorly, and that you could have been in a wheel chair and needing help to wash, dress, eat whatever. That would not have mattered because I know Mum would never give up on you and I would have given up my job to help Mum look after you. After all you are my Daddy and have done so much for me I could never repay the love you show me but if washing and dressing showed you how much I love you that that would have been ok.
I hate seeing you in hospital and know that you are still very ill, but I need you to know that I love you so much Daddy, I want you to hurry up and get better because I need my Daddy, my friend and a girl's first love.
Miss you soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much
Hurry home, it is really odd watching normal things on TV,
