A visit would be great and help when needed is appreciated, but he has missed a lot of opportunities and I feel now that he is a familiar stranger. How to recover family relations that have been cut off in mid stream and now he wants to resume, kind of at the point of long ago like time stood still and now since he has ruined his life he now has time for me, like its all he has.
