Today we are going to Florida. My father is dying. Cancer. He is in his last days and I truly hope he passes quickly as he is in a lot of pain. I am sad. Last year I lost a child and this year I’m losing a parent. Neither is easy no matter how expected or “for the best” it may be. These are some of the memories I will hold onto dearly, tight, close to my heart. I see a lot of my father in P. Some of her expressions are his, exactly. I hope she keeps them, at least until my aching heart is soothed.

Gosh you are right! I never realized how much Annika's facial features and expressions are your dad's. Not sure how i missed that! Great to have a bit of Jorge here on earth to enjoy.
It is a wonderful thing that he was able to meet and spend time with A. and even more special that you photographed their time together so beautifully. He had to be at peace knowing that you have grown into an amazing, creative, strong & unique woman with a loving family. I know you guys had your differences here and there, but he had to have been so proud of the woman you have grown into.
Thanks for the photos here. It seems a little silly since it has been nearly 10 years since I spent alot of time at your house with your family…but my heart is so heavy. Looking at these photos you can see how full his life truly was. He will be missed. XOXO
