Brooke Hogan shared a heartbreaking message to her late father Hulk.

Nearly nine months after the WWE legend’s death, Brooke, 37, shared a black-and-white illustration of her father holding her in his arms on Instagram Tuesday, April 14.

Over the image, Brooke wrote, “If my love could have saved you, you would have lived forever.”

Hulk died after he suffered a heart attack at his home in Florida on July 24. Brooke, who had a complicated relationship with her father, broke her silence five days later with a lengthy tribute.

“My dad’s blood runs through my veins. His eyes shine through my children,” she began in the post, referring to her twins with former NHL star Steven Oleksy.

“When he left this earth, it felt like part of my spirit left with him. I felt it before the news even reached us,” Brooke, who asked to be removed from her father’s will after his death, continued in her tribute. “… I know he’s at peace now, out of pain, and in a place as beautiful as he imagined. He used to speak about this moment with such wonder and hope. Like meeting God was the greatest championship he’d ever have.”

She also said she felt it was “necessary to clear a few things up” and explained that it was not a single “fight” or one moment that caused their estrangement.”It was a series of private phone calls no one will ever hear, know, or understand,” she said.

“My father was confiding in me about issues weighing on his heart, both personal and business. I offered to be a life raft in whatever capacity he needed. I told him he had my support. I begged him to rest, to take care of himself.”

Oleksy, 40, told PEOPLE shortly after Hulk’s death that the WWE legend had “no interest” in meeting his grandkids despite Brooke being at Hulk’s side “for every surgery leading up to the last two years.”

Brooke chose not to attend Hulk’s funeral, explaining on Instagram after that she didn’t think he would want one.

“My father hated the morbidity of funerals. He didn’t want one,” she said. “And although I know people grieve in many ways – and I’m so grateful for all celebrations and events organized to honor him, as his daughter, I had to make my own decision to honor him the best and most genuine way I knew how…privately…the way that made me feel the closest to him.”

Hulk’s life and death is the focus of a new Netflix docuseries, Hulk Hogan: Real American, premiering April 22, which will include his final interview. Brooke does not appear in the docuseries.
