My son is dying, and the only person who can save him doesn't know he exists.
Two years ago, I went home for my mother's funeral and spent one night with my high school ex.
I left the next morning without telling him anything. Not that I was pregnant. Not that I kept the baby. Not that I named our son Evan.
But now Evan's bone marrow has stopped producing blood cells, and the doctors told me his biological father is his best chance at survival.
So I drove back to the small town I haven't been to in two years and knocked on his door.
I told him everything. That he has a son. That his son is sick. That I need him.
His hands gripped the doorframe so hard his knuckles went white.
"Two years," he said. "You kept my son from me for two years."
I stood there with nothing to say because he was right…
He turned away from me. Put his hands on the counter. The only sound was the clock on his kitchen wall.
Then he grabbed his keys and said,
"Take me to my son."
