I think it would be too painful and we will not infringe on her by contacting her.
However, she has our contact info. I would suggest sending a letter. I'm not sure I would include photos and I would be very cautious of what you write. What if her other kids open it?
Also, you may want to include a return receipt notification. That way you know it got delivered. Nothing she has to sign for, only acknowledgment that it was delivered.

Delivery confirmation is a good idea--you can track delivery online, but recipient does not have to sign for it or anything. It's not expensive, either. You will know when it was delivered, so you can be sure your letter didn't get lost in the mail.
Return receipt would mean the recipient would have to sign for the letter. If they are not home, they have to go to the PO to sign and get the letter-
