Sometimes people say the worse thing someone can go through is the death of a child. Well I also know that works in reverse. One of the worse things a kid can go through is the loss of a parent. I held my sisters daughters a many of times after her death hysterically crying they wanted their mommy. It's one thing to adjust to a temporary loss, it's a whole other to face a permanent loss. Lets just say the worse possible thing could happen and you'd lose all rights...the fact is ALWAYS going to remain that YOU are his FATHER and NOBODY will FOREVER break that bond, that as long as YOU are ALWAYS out there he will ALWAYS have the hope of one day reuniting with you...nobody can take that away from him, please don't let him down, he is counting on you inside to one day be reunited one way or the other.
