My father Philip has been battling cancer for 5 years. He thinks he is going to die soon. We didn't have a good relationship while I was growing up. I never felt wanted by him and still to this day, 35 years later, he continues to disappoint me and hurt me. I have always just swept my feelings under the rug in order to keep family peace. Please pray that I can sort out my feelings and pray that I get the strength to finally tell him how I really feel (but in a gentle, loving way). I'm torn in half between being hurt and mad at him and feeling guilty for feeling that way because he's dying.

Please pray also for a miracle for him that the cancer leaves his body and he is healed. I love my dad so much.
