would have been my step-dad's 49th birthday.
You know, I thought it would be insanely hard - that I'd have a hard time getting through the day. But, it wasn't bad at all. Yes, I'd thought of him a few times, and criedonce twice.
Day by day, it is getting better. Very slowly, but surely.

I hope we all get to meet them when we are together and tell them about it.

I too hope we get to meet them collectively. That would be so awesome. :D Besides, Patrick owes me a hug ;)

It was a lot of suffering - but he's in a better place now (wherever that place happens to be)
