This page is dedicated to my father who has spent his whole life making his children proud of him, and this page is to show him that I am really proud to say that he is my father. In January of this year my father was diagnosed with Squamous Cell Cancer lung cancer. At first, my father was unsure of what to do, instead of giving up on himself, he continued to try and get as much as he could get out of life. This makes me really proud of him. Most people would have given up, and allowed themselves to be taken, but he had faith in himself. However, he wasn't the only one who had faith in himself, the whole family did. Below is a poem that I dedicate to my dad.
There For Me
He is always there for me..... Through thick and thin..... Showing me the way..... And when I am down, he lifts up my chin.....
I always wonder..... How can I repay him..... Then I think, I just love him..... And I hope he wants that too.....
Where would I be without him..... Nowhere, I suppose..... But then, I fear...... What will I do when he goes......

I would also like to honor the fact that my father was in the Vietnam War, and was able to return safely to the United States. I hope that everyone honors the Vietnam Veterans, and their spectacular achievements.
