I had a strong desire to do it as well. On the other hand, grief is a tricky prison, and the idea of losing another kid caused a portion of me to feel a deep sense of panic. I didn’t believe that I would be able to make it through it again.
As a result of that dread, I came dangerously close to saying no to her. However, as she looked at me, she was hopeful, brave, and just about to pass away, and I recognized that she was not asking for a lifetime.
he was pleading with someone to love her at this moment. And fear is not a shield that love hides behind. Then, while I was holding her hand, I informed her, “Sweetheart, I am your father for as long as you require my assistance.”
Everything was different after spending those three months with her.
Every day, I was there. As well as that, my biker brothers arrived, bringing with them a barrage of noise, laughter, and leather vests that were covered with patches.
They named her an honorary member of our club, presented her with a small vest that had her name sewn on the back, and filled that antiseptic hospital room with more family members than she had ever known in her brief life.
