Today, I saw my dad for the first time in almost five years, at his funeral. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Final destination
Today, my dad's cremated remains came in the mail. This is the first time in my entire adult life that he has visited me at my home. FML
Today, I saw my dad for the first time in ten years. He was stealing my car. FML
Don't shoot the messenger
Today, I took my best friend to see her dad in hospital. While they were talking in another room about his care, he took his last lucid words before his death. I was the only one there and I'd never even met him before. FML
Are you kidding me?
Today, my mom talked me into going to a funeral since my dad wouldn't go. It was for one of her classmates. When it was our time to view the casket, we paused in front of it for a second before my mom leans over to me and says, "What if I told you that was really your dad?" FML
Today, my dad came to visit me. By visit I mean he arrived, took a huge smelly dump and left. This is the first time I've seen my dad in months. FML
Classic
Today, I had a dream I saw my dad. I tried to talk to him, but then I woke up. He died last Monday. FML
Tight knit family
Today, I went to visit my parents after 4 years of not seeing them. They'd moved without telling me. FML
Keeping it real
Today, I went to visit my dad for the first time in over a year, as I have been studying for my Master's degree in history halfway across the world. The first thing he said to me? "So, gotten a real job yet?" FML
Today, I got the guts to call my dad for the first time in nine years. He said he "almost didn't remember" he "had another daughter." Another? FML
Pleasant
Today, after spending five years regaining contact with my estranged father, I finally met him. I tearfully dropped my luggage and ran to hug him. He belched and told me to get in the car, because he had diarrhea. FML

Not alone man. After 8 years of no contact I drove 3000 miles roughly to see my dad brain dead on his death bed just to have to watch them pull the plug. Shit sucks sometimes keep your head up you'll be ok.

This is probably the saddest fml I've ever read...my condolences op :(( I lost my dad too and near 7 years later it's still weird to think he's not here anymore. Hang in there, it'll get worse before it gets better. ❤️ And to everyone that voted YDI, unless it was accidental, you're just sick and heartless.
