A wonderful search angel has located my possible bmom. He attempted to contact earlier today but got her voicemail (did not leave a message). I have her phone number and I want to call... but then again I don't! I'm so scared that it won't be her, or she'll refuse me. I'm ready for all these outcomes, but my goodness, this could be my mother! The woman I've been wondering about for 30 years of my life.
Any suggestions to make this easier? Or possible phone scripts I can use? I'm so afraid I'll screw up when I call her, lol.
Thanks in advance for any input and advice!
edit - After reading the ~Contact Etiquette~ sticky I felt I needed to clarify a few things. First of all, I live in Canada now and my bmom lives in Colorado, so there isn't any way of meeting face to face. Also, if our research was correct, she lives by herself. Her husband (not my bfather) died in '04. Her outgoing message on her voicemail only states her name as living there.
I guess I could send a letter as I have her address. What is everyone's opinion on this?
Thanks,
April
