Home Actor Matt McGorry HD Photos and Wallpapers July 2022 Matt McGorry Instagram - My beautiful father transitioned the morning of 4/1/22 at 75 years old. 💔 Less than two months ago, he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (one of the most deadly) and was told he had months to live. I am eternally grateful that I had a chance to say goodbye. That he wasn't in pain in the last few weeks, that he looked back on his life with deep gratitude & made peace with death. That I got to write him a letter 6 weeks before he passed, the ending of which is what follows. "I hate seeing you in pain, and I know that we all do, and yet I still can’t believe the amount of joy that I’ve still felt in getting to support and be close to you this past week. Getting to watch you in your sleep, as I’m sure you did to me as a child, wishing and hoping for the best. And like the hopeful pragmatist that you are, not facing away from the challenges that you knew would be ahead, but loving passionately with your whole spirit anyway and trusting that love and openness would still always be the best way to move through life’s challenges. I so wish you didn’t have the pain that has been waking you up at night. And also, I have loved the late evening, early morning moments, of quiet intimacy where our love for one another is present through the pain. I don’t know what the rest of this journey will bring for you and for us or for how long it will last. I know, as you do, that there will likely be challenging moments ahead- that there will be pain and sorrow. But I am here for you with my love and support until you become a Beloved Ancestor. Even then, you will live as an always-remembered example me to me and the rest of the family and the people you have touched, as a Divine example of generosity of spirit, love and compassion. While this letter may be coming to an end, our relationship is not. I will think of you, I will speak to you, and I will love you forever and ever. I have never been more sure of anything in my life. Dad, there has been no greater joy, no greater gift, and no greater honor, than being your beloved son. With all of the love in the ever-expanding Universe, Matt"

Matt McGorry Instagram – Tuesday, 4/12 was my birthday. 11 days after my dad passed and my first birthday without him. 

I wanted to share another part of the letter that I wrote/read to him in order to continue sharing our love for one another and in the hopes that you might feel it too. 💜

“As you know, for many years, I have had a difficult time discussing with you the idea that one day you would transition into another realm. I felt unable to accept this truth, or at least to look at it directly without feeling like I would be blinded by devastation. And yet, as I mentioned on the call where you told me about your diagnosis, it was my last visit here just a few months ago that I felt I was finally able to accept this truth.

God, I am so sad to come to the full realization that this beautiful version of our connection cannot go on forever. But I am indescribably grateful to have this time with you, that not everyone gets with their beloved before they pass. I think my greatest fear is that I wouldn’t have a chance to say ‘goodbye.’ I will never be able to express how grateful I am that we have this time, in which the hourglass of life may have shifted dramatically, but I am still able to look into your eyes and tell you, hopefully more than ever, how much I love you.

To have the vision of life narrowed into this window of time has also provided a humbling perspective that makes me feel even more grateful than ever. More than ever, I am aware of how each moment with you is a gift, how every time I see you laugh or smile is a blessing, even when sitting next to you watching TV shows I hate whose names I don’t have to mention. 

The best parts of me come from you and mom. It is radical to see men (especially white men) imbued with the values that have guided your life. To see tenderness, compassion, empathy, care, profound humility, emotional intelligence and love embodied without hesitation, restraint, or shame. I have no doubt that seeing these qualities modeled in both you and mom has allowed me to become the person that I am today. I can’t believe how lucky I have been to absorb these values and build on them with the understandings and conviction of my generation.”
