Demi Lovato's estranged father is facing a dangerous surgery to remove a tumor in his throat and he's heartbroken over the fact that his daughter refuses to speak to him.
Patrick Lovato spoke exclusively to RadarOnline.com, pleading for his youngest daughter to give him a call.
"Demi and I haven't spoken in so long and all I want her to do is call her daddy," Patrick tearfully said.
"I'm begging her the only way I know how," he said. "I want to talk with her so badly."
The former Disney star and her older sister Dallas have been estranged from their father for over a decade.
"We were so close when she was little," Patrick said. "My little daughter was my partner, I just love her so much."
Patrick lives alone now, following the death of his beloved dog Dakota, and says that he still holds out hope that he and Demi can repair their relationship.
