You want to hear about nerve? Try this one on for size.
The father of Olympic gymnast Gabby Douglas abandoned her family and often refused to pay child support, leaving her mom to pay staggering bills. The father reappeared at the Olympics in London and was surprised to see he has not been left tickets.
Douglas' mother supported the family on her own. A truly inspiring story.

Sure, he'll probably want to get back into her life now that she will make millions in endorsements. I don't think it would be fair of me to tell anyone to completely write off a family member, but as a still young girl I hope she doesn't end up falling for any sob stories and get taken advantage of $$$.
