I am about to do the hardest thing of my life. to take a letter i have been preparing for many months to my birth mother. Some people on here may know the saga of my quest. Finding her. her wanting contact, then changing her mind. well i could not close the chapter on my life without a final goodbye so to speak.... and this day has arrived. I shall not see her, just post the letter through her door and walk away. Please think about me today... i need all the strentgh i can muster. many thanks.xx

I'm sure it will be much harder for her actually Em. I had a similar experience many years ago so I do know how you feel. Be strong, you've done nothing wrong, but then neither has she. Sometimes circumstances get in the way. Good Luck, I hope you meet eventually. Jo. X.
