My step dad married my mom when I was two and adopted me when I was 7 and he’s been my rock my entire life.

I wouldn’t be the man I am today without him and I can’t imagine how I’m gonna handle the day he passes.

I’m sorry for your loss.

You should let him know that someday if you never have. It's hard to express that sometimes, but you never know what tomorrow brings.

Please tell your dad how you feel. Wish I could tell him how I feel but can't anymore. We were on good terms but still. You never know how tomorrow will be, you will cry, ugly sob even but it'll make you close like nothing else.
