It is sad Amanda I am sure he could have reaped so much pleasure from such a loving daughter. Sadly sometimes men especially just cannot face up to life in the way that they should. It is the way they are made, nothing to do with you at all.

Sometimes, someone looks indifferent because they are overwhelmed
and it may be that the difficulty of your life is more than he knows how to cope with. Maybe he needs help himself, to connect with you as a person, instead of seeing only something he can't fix.
Thanks, Amanda, for all your calling cards--I always appreciate them!

That is so sad that he does not have an understanding of it is for you! I wonder if he is in some kind of denial! Shelly

Difficult it is when others do not understand us.

Hello Amanda...
In many ways, I uderstand your sadness and frustration with your dad. While my own dad did help with much of what I needed in my childhood, I always sensed that there was a reluctance in doing so. I will not ask him for such help now. Not only because I know there's no way he could afford to do it, but also because I know he'd only complain about it.
I feel the same way about having CP that you do, it was a gift from the Father Himself. Still, there are some days when I wish others in my life had more understanding of my physical situation.
Be blessed my friend. My prayers are yours.
