I just came back from a month in Cuba....for a year myself and Choosepeace had been planning to find a long lost son and re-unite with 78 year old Father in California. I found him. 25 years and no communication between the two. The son thought father was living the high life in Miami and forgot about him, the father thought that the son wanted nothing to do with him. Carlos was a dissident, in prison and exiled May 7th 1980 and never got a chance to say goodbye. Juan was 16 when his father left... Carlos' dream has been to re-unite with son and let his son know how much he has always loved him and his life has been empty with out him. For years the father sent letters and money but because he has lived a life in isolation more or less, far away from the Cuban community he did not understand that NONE of these letters reached his son. The father has letters from his son now and I took loads of pictures, he will have those soon. We tried to call out on a calling card when I was there so that they could speak for the first time in 25 years but to no avial, we could not. I know it would mean everything to the father to write his son and for the son to have a letter from his father. These two men love each other and their hearts are now full. Can you imagine what it would be like to not know if your own son is alive or dead, or if your father loved you? And then to discover that your son is alive, has always loved you and your father has always loved you and yearned to be with you. The look in Juan's face when I handed him the pictures of his father and gave him the heartfelt messages ....Please if anyone is going to the Varadero area, my friend is there and will bring the letters to Juan...can anyone help me out? please....please....please....please. You would be doing such an amazing thing for a father and son. Carlos never thought he would ever know of his son again let alone have a letter from him and recent photos...all 30 of them. Juan needs a letter from his father and the father needs to write his son.

I so thank you from the bottom of my heart.............

update, father & son are doing well, they communicate through letters, photos and pre-paid phone cards that are purchased in Cardenas, I found a wonderful carrier pidgeon that for now...goes to Cuba every three months and takes a package from the father (sent to me, me send to CP, CP brings to Cuba, delivers to son, son gives CP package, CP brings it to Canada, mails it to me and then I mail to father) it's wonderful that father and son can keep the reunion going... all thanks to my wonderful CP!

I love you!
