Photo by Landiva Weber on Pexels.com I began writing Thirty Years Without You with a very specific intention in mind. It is a platform for me to reconnect with my dad while allowing others in.

The idea that I had anything to say and that I would put those thoughts out into the world on such a public platform would have been inconceivable to me as a child. I was raised to be afraid.
