    Rexs daughter was amazing to tell him she wasn't mad to reassure his mind to no feel guilty.

    Lovely girl... all heart... Her dad is contrite but unforseen circumstances befalls us all... With maturity on his side - he can really work at getting it all together - with a little help from wherever he can... Godspeed to you all... Joppa is wonderful...

    As lovely as this is, were it my dad, I would have taken him to live with me. No one should be homeless unless they have no relatives or friends. Everyone has someone who can help. I would have no peace even knowing a friend was homeless.

    My name is Christopher... this story is old.. but I can relate to this.. by my story. I have been addicted to alcohol since the age of 12. I went through the pain of separation from my two children.. Taylor and Connor.. I could not be 100 percent sure they would never see me drunk. I was not going to let them see what I saw in my family. The heartbreak is still with me after all these years.. I cried but still have hope.. I could be that man.

      🌹It's nice that they got to meet again and talk . But he has to want to fix his problems. She cannot just move him into her apartment because he will bring all of his problems. It's sad🥀

      She's not in so much pain. He did the right thing and let her be adopted. She worries about him but hopefully she knows she cannot fix him. Maybe he got more help from Joppa🛐🌹

      Mikael - Dear God, No!! Wake up and let's not live in a dangerous fantasy! That man has so many problems. You can see that. She's only 23 and has no idea what all of his problems are. He put her up for adoption so that her she would not have to live in the hell that he has seen. He's not a lost puppy. He's a 45 year old man with major problems. God help him 🛐

      Good for you asshole. Did you also have a daughter to take care of? I doubt it. That makes it 10x harder. If you don't have any money, how are you going to move? Pay for gas?
