tough to read man because i’ve been on the other side of that story.
let me tell you what i wanted and have always wanted from my father(s) - being adopted throws a few curve balls.
for them to make an effort.
i don’t expect them to be super heroes. they are men. just like i am. and God knows we men make mistakes.
but as sons we just want to hear from our dads regularly. so dont stop reaching out man. no matter what it takes.
always let him know you are there for him.

Thanks, Jon, Yeah I know I have a long route to travel... All I can hope for is that he will come back and we can move forward with our relationship and make it better
You know you don't have to wait for him to come back...right?
He's gonna be away for a year...WRITE to him. And don't say you don't know your way around the written word; you've already proven that otherwise ;)
Write to him once, twice a week...everyday. Let him know you're thinking about him, missing him, tell him about your day...anything.
Of course, call him too, but I mentioned writing specifically because that takes a little more "effort" (that word Jon said)...and that'll come through loud and clear.
One day at a time Scott...and i wish you nothing but the best between you and your son moving forward.
