As this Father’s Day is approaching, I know the emotions inside of many of you have been stirring. You walk into a pharmacy or a department store and you are hit in the face by cards and gift ideas. You drive down the road and see a sign which says, “Hey Pop.” TV Commercials? Hallmark Movies? The Father’s Day reminders are everywhere this time of year, and those reminders are good and comforting for many. Yet, these reminders can be painful to others. Maybe you are an adult child missing your dad. You could be a mother who is missing the father of her children. You could even be a father who is missing your child (If this last one is you, the next blog post will be specifically designed with you in mind.)
In my opinion, “Dance with My Father” is one of the most heartfelt songs ever written regarding the death of a father. Grab a tissue or two before you watch, and allow the song to touch your heart. If you need someone to talk with during this emotional time, please don’t hesitate to call me (Kim) at 504-734-0140 or e-mail me at ksmith@stjosephhospice.com.
