Thanks for the advice. It's always good to hear another person's perspective.
Winter444, I feel bad for you too that you've had similar difficulties. Waiting and waiting for a person to respond is extremely stressful. I feel like I have aged 10 years in the last several months. I know I need to get an answer from my half-sis; maybe I should try writing a letter as you suggested. I have tried to be so patient with this whole process; it's been over 7 months now since she last called me. It hurts that I mean so little to her.
LMNGambino, you bring up an interesting point that maybe my half-brother might be receptive if contacted directly. I need to find out from my half-sis if she actually talked to her brother since my last letter. She had told me that he was more traumatized by the abuse under my bfather, so it does make sense that he wouldn't want anything to do with me. Sometimes I suspect that he is the one who has discouraged her from further contact with me. I sure wish I knew what was going on...
By the way, I wish you all the best in your reunion this weekend. So happy for you!!!
