Today I met my new doctor, Jim. Not James Hilbrand or Dr. Hilbrand, just Jim. Honestly, I never left a doctors office feeling great.
So here is the skinny about me. I have Diabetes and it's kicking my tail. On top of that I ben diagnosed with depression. Years of fighting an invisible disease have finally beat me into submission. Well, submission is such a strong word, but I'm almost to the point I want to give up.
I can't give up, my family needs me especially my kids. My son (David Reilly) turned 6 today and my daughter (Julia) is about to turn 8. The need their dad.

I know what it's like not having a dad. It has left an emptiness in my heart, a void that has left me hurting inside. I never had any man tell me he is proud of me, or that affirmed that I was a man.
My family told me he never had anything to do with me. But never truly told me why. :(
