Parental Abandonment | |
| NEED / int_297ab1b9 | comment |
Parental Abandonment: Kaylee and DJ's father went out for a fishing trip and never returned a few weeks after DJ diagnosed. The reason is because when he tested to see if he was possible donor for DJ he ended up learning that he wasn't actually DJ's biological father and that his wife had cheated on him. | |
