yes our adult children met her this summer,we sent her a ticket to come up for two weeks to visit and they all got along fine and also welcomed her very warmly.
I do wonder though if it was because when she wanted to come back up at Christmas we had said it was not a good time as we had some other plans.
and that next summer would be better.
In one years time, we had gone down to visit her twice, and had her come up to visit us also, and we live thousands of miles from each other. We had just had a VERY busy summer with lots of relatives & friends coming to visit from all over ( including her for 2 weeks) and we just needed to slow things down a bit as things just had been so busy,and the reunion itself is very overwhelming at times and we also had been promising some of our good friends for a few years now that we would come visit them ...but never could and with building our house the previous summers and also traveling both times to spend time with her ,and all the company we had this last summer, so we had kept postponeing the invitation from our friends.
so anyway...b-daughter may have been upset about that, not being able to come up for Christmas, as it seemed right after that she stopped the contact with us. we are not sure if that is it for sure, but as we look back that is when things changed.
and at first when we would inquire why we had not heard from her she would just make excuses like her husband was always monopolizing the computer ...etc...etc....but then gifts started being unacknowledged...so we knew there was something not right, but she just wouldn't talk to us about it.
so now after many months of this silence, she wrote to borrow money..... and then wrote to say she is in a pull-back stage, which I guess means she wants no contact until "she" is ready to resume the reunion again. so.....that is the last time we have heard from her.
