After my Mum died in their 60's, Dad seemed to change. he became less accessible.

I always loved him, but I was no good at expressing it. It seems sometimes so easy to express warmth to everybody else, but so difficult with someone you love.

I kept trying, but towards the end - he didn't remember the life we'd had together.

If you have the ability to let those around you know how much you love them - you are one lucky dude. Of course I miss him.....but I was somehow missing him by a mile when he was alive.
