I'm feeling ok...been tracking the flight all morning ha. It's the weirdest feeling knowing your child is so far away. I can't begin to imagine how it must be for some fathers must feel when their kids live abroad.
Yeah you are right, it's time I tried to claw back some of my life. As I'm sure you know...your life becomes engrossed in it all and become tunnel eyed (well I did).
I've been quite lucky with my solicitor if i'm honest. He has been good at choosing which battles to fight and which to let go.
I get to see my son on a Wednesday for about 45 mins and Saturday for about 45 to an hour depending on what mood the mother is in.
I totally understand what you mean, when you look back at it and think what you've gone through. Much respect for you, must have been so tough not seeing yours for the first 10months.
