Long story short, I had a short relationship with this woman after my first divorce (1 month). I got her pregnant and we broke up during pregnancy. Anyway, she left after a couple years after my son was born and I couldn't get in touch with her. All the while, I still kept him on my insurance and tried people searches all of 7 years and couldn't find her. A couple weeks ago, I saw a kaiser bill that showed my son used the Lancaster Kaiser (where I lived). I used a revised people search and found him. I contacted the mom and arranged for a visit. This is what he looks like. I got him a cellphone so he can contact me anytime. Since the visit, he's called me 2 times a day. I'm excited that I can rekindle our relationship. He's 10 years old now.
That's awesome! Kinda fucked that the mom didn't keep him in your life. How do your kids feel about it? How does he feel about now having to be a Blazer fan?
Yeah I was pretty upset about it for a long while, but I guess it's better late than never. My kids are excited cuz they remembered him. They would blame me for why he wasn't around. It was a battle. I am going to forget about the past and work on the future. I still have a lifetime left to work on our relationship.
Way to avoid the Blazer question. Stay firm, don't be afraid to spank the Laker fandom out of him. #ToughLove
Awesome! Sounds like you have the right emotions about it, let the past alone and concentrate on the future.
7 years of unused health insurance is an expensive search method. Enjoy him while he's young! He'll toughen up and ignore you in a few years.
That's great news man. He looks a lot like you. Your eldest doesn't look thrilled to have another brother though
