But her family's past hasn't stopped Dee wanting to get to know her biological mum... which naturally had lead to her wondering what happened to her father.

Keeping it in the family 

When Dee asked Heather about her biological dad, her mum was cagey... however it soon transpired that Heather knew more than she was letting on.

Eventually Toadie (Ryan Moloney) hired a private investigator to find Dee's father, and it didn't take long for him to be tracked down.

Tragic news 

But in a tragic turn of events, Dee's dad is not only in Alaska, but he is also dying and only has days to live.

Today's Neighbours sees Toadie toying with whether to tell Dee about her father or not, realising that if he doesn't tell her now it could be too late for the pair to ever meet.

But when Ellie Conway advises Toadie that Dee would never know if he didn't tell her about finding her father, Toadie is given food for thought.

Will Toadie tell Dee that her father is dying so she can go and visit him?

Or will he keep the secret to himself?
