A great and fantastic man- My Father! #oralbsweeps

My dad is my rockstar in life. While he lives a few states away now, I manage to still see him a few times a year and I cherish these moments. There are so many moments in life that he has always been there for me, despite the constant nagging on my part when things didn’t go quite my way. One specific moment I remember is when I was graduating Dental School and he came down with a severe stomach problem. My dad has Crohn’s Disease and he has flare ups often, some so bad that they put him in the hospital. He made it a point, when he got hospitalized, to tell his doctor, that no matter what, he wanted to see me walk down the aisle to receive my DMD (Doctor of Dental Medicine).  When I was called up to receive my diploma, the tears in my eyes just swelled up seeing him.

He also worked incredibly hard to make sure my sister and I were cared for. We lived in New Jersey for most of my child and young adult life, and he made the 1.5 hour commute each way into NYC for work. He did this for 30 years so he could make a good living for all of us, all while allowing us to stay in a community where we felt secure and had friends. He could have easily uprooted all of us but decided to sacrifice   and make the daily commute for 30 years. I never thanked him for this but I hope by him reading this post, he realizes how incredibly thankful my mom, sister, and I are of him. Now, he is retired and really enjoying life. He absolutely should, as he is one of the best man I have ever met and continues to be my rock in my life.344_28381469355_3407_n

Right now, Oral-B at Target is hosting the Power Dad’s Smile Everyday Sweepstakes with over $1,000 in prizes starting June 2! Being a dentist, Oral- B is one of my favorite brands, I recommend personally and professionally. I have had quite a relationship with Oral-B since my dental school days, and they are a company I fully support. That is why I was so happy to learn about this fantastic sweepstakes.
