May you and your son enjoy the holiday season. Your son's father doesn't know what he has missed and continues to miss. Your son is a strong, independent and very intelligent young man. You have done a wonderful job raising him and you know what? Your son knows that.
I'm very sorry he has not reached out to his son. They could have had a good relationship and worked together on many projects, etc. It's his loss.
His father will most likely contact him when there is nothing else left in the world for him...most likely when he is ready to leave this world. I've seen a couple of cases of this and it's like they want to make things right at the very end of their lives. Unfortunately, it just doesn't work that way and it's too little too late. But, who knows...the future may change him and some point and he'll want to contact him.
Merry Christmas to you and your son!
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
