I lost my dad last Thursday. He was an alcoholic for my entire life, always getting sober and then relapsing. The last time I saw him before he was on his death bed (quite literally, he had metastatic melanoma) he told me I was dead to him. Seeing him in is final days and hearing people speak about him at his service healed and hurt me all at the same time. In the recent months he had made amazing progress and what seemed to others (who have known him for a long time) to be a permanent change. I feel selfish for this but I’m so angry my sister and I never got to experience him this way before he passed. This is all so hard
