    When I was a teen, I discovered about my biological father from my birth-certificate. I searched his whereabouts and found out where he lived. I went to see him at his home and told him "I'm your son" and he replied "No, you're not my son. I have a new family now. Don't ever come here again"... I guess the reality is not always a fairytale.

    This is one of the reasons I suggested a follow-up on Joe since after he meant his sisters he was no longer on the show. Which is what happened later, did Doug come thru his surgical procedure or what.. After returning to Oregon did Joe go back and meet anymore of his family on his dad's side? After watching this episode it connects with me and what I've been thru the last few years.
