My sister apparently let news of my cancer slip to my father. I haven't spoken to him in 5 years. He's never met my son and always had an excuse why he couldn't visit or let us visit him.
When she told him I had breast cancer and was having a mastectomy this month, she says he cried. He left 4 messages on my answering machine while I was on my cruise, and talked to my mom once when she was here cleaning my house (they divorced when I was 4). My sister is asking if she can tell him when and where I'll be so he can be there at the surgery.
I don't know what to do. He wasn't there for most of my childhood, having decided seeing me wasn't worth the child support payments he had to make to keep joint support. He even went so far as to try to take my inheritance from a friend of the family that I received when I was 8, forcing my mother to put it in a low-yield trust that he couldn't touch. I'd written him off and out of my life since he chose not to meet my youngest child.
*sigh*
