8月27日 movie: World Trade Center Just came home from taking in this flick. I liked it, even though it was hard to watch at times. True story of two Port Authority cops that were rescued from the rubble. My ex-husband, my daughter's father, was a fireman.....I thought about him the entire time I was watching that movie. He died 3 years ago, not in the line of duty, in fact he had been retired because of health issues for the last 7 yrs. before his death. He was a fireman for 17 yrs. The youngest fireman ever hired in the state of Michigan to this day...he was only 19 when he was hired to the department. I remembered some of the runs he had when we were married and my daughter was a baby. His first Father's Day after he himself became a father he had a rescue on a suicide of a young man in his mid-twenties. The first Christmas after our child was born, he had been called in on a house fire at about 2am and came home exhausted and unable to participate in any family events. He also saved people's lives and delivered 3 babies while on duty. Always when I see a fireman's helmet and raincoat I remember him. Our marriage did not survive, but I loved him very much. I have never remarried to this day. My only child was also his only child. I wish he had lived longer, it really messed me up when he died.....but people don't understand that because we had been divorced a long time and he was very bitter toward me. But as I get older, I see that a lot of men are bitter over divorce.....some feel it's the "manly" way to deal with it. And he was very into being manly, being a fireman and all. I am proud that he was my husband and that he was a good fireman. The disease of alcoholism that took him from us has no power over him anymore. It can't destroy good memories and love even though it tries. It can destroy relationships, but not the love that was behind the relationship all along. Good night, Dale. See you on the other side, my dear. コメント (1 件)
