I wouldn't hesitate to say that he was my biggest supporter in the vet school journey. I want to celebrate this with him, but when I call my Mom and we talk about it...we just sort of end up recognizing our helplessness.

Anyway, I miss him...some days more painfully than others....and tonight and tomorrow will be one of those hard times I just have to make it through. Please pray for my strength...I don't want my grief to impair my ability to enjoy this exciting time.
Oh, kiddo, you'll be in our prayers! I know your Dad will be SOOOOO proud of you!
