re: rejection
There are all sorts of speculations that can be made as to why someone might not want to meet thier birthchild or birthparent for that matter. My mother had an adoptee friend who had sought out to find her birth mother and then chose not to make contact because she was wealthy and did not want to be taken advantage of. Her birthmother had become wealthy as well and had not made contact for the same reasons. It took them another 10 years before giving in and now they both laugh about it. Of coarse there are other family members that might be an obvious consideration. Some birthmothers may just feel that they had closed that chapter in thier lives and moved on and dont want to reopen old hurts. Who knows. What can you do but go on without them. After all, you made it this far. Best of wishes to you and I hope you find a way to be at peace and not let her reaction be as personal as it feels.
