I Found my dad John Lisby

I wasn't adopted,but I never knew my real dad,in fact he never even knew about me.I've been searching for him for awhile.I had known his cousin Bruce when I was little and Bruce told me that my dad had a son Johnny and I found an address for him and wrote my dad a letter.I was just about to give up hope of finding him when 2 days after Johnny gave him the letter Dad called on November 25,2006.It was the best day of my life,he told me that he always wanted a daughter and that he loved me and told me to call him Dad.We talk on the phone each week,but we haven't met in person yet because we live in different states.He's trying to come up with the money for a bus ticket to come home on for Christmas.I'll be staying with him and his wife,and I now have 2 brothers.My life is finally complete.

I heard he lived in Indianapolis and his first two names were changed to Jonathan Eric.I'm not sure how true it is.I also heard that my dads sister Judy Wilkinson's friend has him,but she won't give me any info.

This is the story about what happened with me and Eric:


I was 20 years old and unmarried when I got pregnant with my son.I went to stay with my Uncles wife Toni when I was 7 months pregnant and stayed until my son was 3 months old when Toni and my step Grandpa found me an apartment in Greensburg,Indiana and then finally in St.Paul,Indiana.I was all alone with my son,I didn't know anyone and my family lived 18 miles away in Shelbyville,Indiana.I trusted Toni,I never dreamed she would betray me,she promised me that if I moved closer to her she would take me everywhere I needed to go since I didn't drive.My only income was Welfare($229.00)my rent was $220 a month plus I had my electric to pay.I tried to get her to help me find an apartment in Shelbyville,but she wouldn't take me to look for one,I was stranded.Toni wouldn't take me anywhere,she was even representative on The Wic that I was getting and she wouldn't even go get his formula.I had to use my foodstamps to get his formula which was expensive,Toni started telling everyone that I was mad because I had to use my foodstamps.I think anyone would've been mad,why buy the formula when I am suppose to get it for free,the foodstamps was for food.I eventually had to walk 1 & 1/2 miles with my son in the middle of summer just to go to Toni's house in St.Omer,Indiana just to get the wic cards.When my son was 10 months old Toni took Eric with her supposedly to go to the mall,I didn't find out until later that her and my Grandmother had his picture taken,Toni told Grandma that she would take her to have it done on the condition I didn't get one and he was my son, not theirs.Toni was suppose to take me to pay the lightbill,but didn't and the lights were turned off,I called Toni and told her,she said she would come and get us to spend the night and take me to get the lights back on the following day,within the hour The Welfare was there to take my son,that was 15 1/2 years ago.Now he's 17 and I'm trying to find him.How many of you think I was set up?
