I remember sitting on the kitchen table every night while he cooked dinner.

I remember sitting on a side chair while he did his work and gave me jobs.

I remember on sick days be would bring me medicine to comfort me.

I remember trips, vacations, and cruises.

I remember hospital trips.

I remember pulling up chairs in icu next to him, telling him about my days.

I remember the chemo and the medicine.

I remember hearing his last word, his last breath, his last heartbeat. 

I remember him.
