The Father I Needed: A Daughter's Story of Absence, Faith, and Forgiveness (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798246165904)

A heartfelt memoir of love, loss, and the journey to find the father I longed for-and the strength to find myself.

What happens when the person you love most isn't always there?

I loved my dad. We danced, laughed, and shared moments that felt like the world was ours.

But as I grew older, I realized his presence wasn't what I needed-and sometimes wasn't there at all. I watched his absence grow and witnessed struggles in my family that left me with confusion, sadness, and anger.

This memoir is my journey through childhood in the Blumberg Projects-full of joy, challenges, and resilience. From treasured moments of laughter and play to the harsh realities of loss and longing, I share the raw truth of growing up craving a father's presence.

It is a story of love, loss, and the strength it takes to find yourself. A memoir about facing the past, embracing its lessons, and discovering the courage to heal, grow, and become the person I was meant to be.
