After a tough divorce, I hadn't seen my son, Justin, in years. So when my ex-wife finally agreed to send him to visit me, I was over the moon. I pictured us having the best time together and even went all out preparing his favorite snacks for when he arrived. I waited at the airport, heart racing, watching passengers pour out of the plane. But Justin wasn't there. At first, I figured maybe he was delayed — bathroom break, maybe? But as time ticked by, the crowd thinned, and still no sign of him. Starting to panic, I approached a flight attendant and asked if there had been a boy named Justin on the flight. Her answer hit me like a ton of bricks: "No, there wasn't." I immediately called my ex-wife, trying to stay calm. She picked up, and when I told her Justin hadn't arrived, her response made my blood run cold: "What are you talking about?! I handed him over to the flight attendant myself. Are you saying… our son is missing?"After a tough divorce, I hadn't seen my son, Justin, in years.
