To this day I am so grateful that my dad did protect me..I am not saying I didnt know what was happening... I was with him everyday and I did see alot, more than I care to mention or remember and I am haunted by so much of it..I think as parents thats what we do, protect our children, whether they're 10, 20, 30, 40 and so on and thats what my dad was doing or at least trying to do, protect me..Until his very last breath...
