Since returning from Greece I've decided that my son should no longer be an open secret, in the past I mention when suitable, but now he is out in the open.
So this weekend, at a friend's hen party, it felt so liberating to be able to say “yes, an 18-old son, who lives in Athens with adoptive parents.”when asked if I got kids.
I've however decided not to name him here as I'm not sure if he knows yet.
My next big decision will be if I make first contact or not.
To meet him will be truely liberating!
