Ok, so I found out that my dad has cancer. The problem is, I have only known him for about two years and have only met him 3 or 4 times. As I grew up without a dad, I kindof grew really attached. It's so awkward that I have to call him by his first name, but I want to get to know him and tell him how much I care, but I don't know how to do that when I can't even manage to call him "dad." I know that his family treated my mom really badly when they found out that she was pregnant, so they don't really talk and he lives in the other side of the United States. I have the chance to come up to his house for about a week this summer with his girlfriend (emphasis on girlfriend, although I do like her). The question is, how do I break the ice without it being completly awkward?
