Btw, how is that grandson doing? Will you have a chance to see him as you head off for parts unknown in a week or so?
Kayak, concerning your grandkids...their father's parents..are they in the picture? If so, are their intersts with their grandkids or son?
My belief is that many times in the case of divorced parents..the grandparents need to step up to the plate...just as you are doing.
I do hope they are involved in a loving way.
