11 years ago...

11 years ago, my heart was ripped out of my chest when I got the horrible news that my beloved dad had suddenly and unexpectedly passed away at the early age of 62. I was six months pregnant with my first child. I still remember it as if it was yesterday - my husband picked me up from work, but didn't tell me until we were at home. I fell to the ground and I thought I was going to die. I have never ever felt so much pain and grief at once.

This is one of the last meals we shared in 2006,

We had Indian curry at a place called 

Dawat Indian Restaurant in Springwood.

The restaurant is now closed since a few years back.

I remember walking into the restaurant,

and all the Indian food aromas 

made me so incredibly nauseated due to my early pregnancy.

Jeez, haven't thought of that for a long time... lol

My dad the computer whiz.

So many times I had to ring him being in a frantic state,

panicking over something regarding my computer,

and he'd calmly help me fix my issues 

from the other side of the planet ♥

So many memories - so many happy times.

RIP... Until we meet again ♥
