The Weight of Inheritance: When Love Feels Like a Stranger

Ten years had passed since I'd seen my father. When we finally pulled up to that VA housing in Sarasota, I froze in the passenger seat, watching this man forty pounds heavier than my memory. My husband spotted him first. I managed only a distant hug-what do you do when your own father feels like a stranger? We'd flown all the way from Alaska so my six children could meet their 84-year-old grandfather, though I'd already warned the older ones not to expect conversation. Later at the beach, I tried asking about his past, but his answers evaporated like sea spray, his eyes always drifting toward the horizon. This disconnect between what family is supposed to be and what it actually is-that's the territory we're entering. Not the sanitized version where everyone gathers for holidays with genuine warmth, but the messier truth many of us live with: parents who weren't capable of the love we needed, who wounded us through action or absence, who left scars we're still learning to name. There are countless ways to flee. My sister Laurie climbed out her bedroom window at fifteen, running two miles to a friend's house night after night, always returning before dawn. Until the night she didn't come back. William left home to escape his volatile mother. Vonnie married at nineteen just to get out. Randi disappeared into anorexia and obsessive exercise. Lisa cut off all contact with the father who abandoned her.
