Hi Jackiejdajda. Thanks for taking the time to reply

It's so helpful to a get a birthmothers perspective , thank you so much!!
That's exactly my thinking, to keep it simple and sweet in the first stages.
You're right on, I need to let the cards fall as they will. I just hope she is ok and to know in her heart that i will be fine. What scares me is what if she's not alive? Then what? I might never get the answers I seek. As far as I know my only other option is to physically go to the Tarrant county court house to try to have my birth certificate unsealed, and truthfully that bothers me. I do not like courts, I already have had two traumatic experiences in court and this would be a huge blow to be denied. I don't know what I could tell the judge to convince him. Hopefully I can get solid advice here if it comes to that.
I really appreciate your support through this.
