Days with my father

Phillip Toledano is a photographer who documented the last years of his dad through pictures and put them on a blog. They ended up being a book but the website is still in the air: http://www.dayswithmyfather.com/

If you click on the right down corner you can flip through the entire book. Honestly, it broke my heart a little. The pictures are so powerful and the stories he tells about his father's changing are beautiful. This man, his father, is such a handsome guy.You can see he has lived his life to the fullest. Amazing. The memories he has will forever be remembered through this book. There are happy bits and sad bits but you can see the vulnerability and I really appreciate it. You almost feel like the photographer opened the door to his house and said: "Well, go ahead and don't be afraid to snoop around in unexpected places where you will find all my thoughts and secrets. I'm happy to share it you. If you have any questions feel free to ask."

I guess I just really want to thank him for doing that because it made me that much stronger. I believe this is the best way to slowly say goodbye to your loved onces. Here are some of my favorites:
