I don't know how I'll be able to face my dad, but I want to be the one who hands him the urn. And face whatever it is to come.

That would be so brave of you! But I do think you need to stop sacrifice yourself for your dad. You’ve been carrying this guilt your whole life, that never even where yours to begin with! Your dad obviously love you no matter what. Maybe now when the truth is out you both can start healing, and actually talk for real about everything!

Maybe, but what if it drives him further down the home he’s been digging? Once he finds out he was wrong about my mother, he may never forgive himself.

Let’s face it, he’s already doing that! Maybe this will get him there faster, but he’s already heading for the rock bottom. Just look what your biological mothers deceit has done to your family thus far! Now at least you both can get some closure. Besides, don’t you think he deserves to know the truth?

He does deserve to know. Okay, I…I’ll tell him. Wish me luck.
