Letters to Daddy (Short)
Letters to Daddy __ 11/10/14 If we had known what you were doing before all of this happened, this NEVER would have happened. Never. Why do you have to be such a martyr? I know you probably didn’t want to worry us, but can you imagine how we all feel now? I feel helpless. You’re lying in a hospital bed, comatose. Doctors have no hope for you. The nurses are all telling us something different, filling us with joyful news. You’re opening your eyes they say. You’re responding to commands they say. Then one ASSHOLE of a doctor comes in and everything has changed.

Letters to Daddy
Letters to Daddy __ 11/10/14 Daddy, I was wondering. What if the things we’re afraid of saying out loud are the things that need to be said most? Like “stop drinking”. “I hate it when you drink”. “Bud Light isn’t your friend; I am.” “Put the can down.” You were never you when the cans touched your lips. I watched endlessly as you swallowed your poison; then listened as you reflected the venom back at us. I witnessed a suicide and I did nothing. We did nothing. Boy, did you show us that.
