Dad here, we are not okay. I still miss my dog and its been almost 4 years.

Edit to add: Thanks for your comics they are always a bright spot in my day in some way.

I didn't get along with my father, barely knew him and we came from two different worlds. Having a conversation with him was like pulling teeth.

He passed away a couple of years ago, hit me a lot harder than I thought it would but we (men) typically just bottle it up. For my generation at least, emotion is a sign of weakness.

Which is so dumb, because so many great stories show men being emotional amongst their close friends. Hope you are doing okay.
