Hi Kathy -
Thank you for your note. It's very nice to be though of. No - I haven't emailed her yet. The other site she is on is not an adoption registry. From googling her name I found her as a member of a group, although looking further into that site they not only have social events, but she is on an adoption panel board. I have wanted to "rush" to email her since the day I found out I could email her through that web site; however, I've been asking questions (from adoptees and personal friends) and many say I should get an intermediary. I realize that it will possibly be a shock for her when she receives an email from me, but I can't help but believe that by giving her space to "digest" all of the initial shock I believe she would be okay. Her professional job is as a social worker, and she is currently attending law school. This leads me to believe she has her feet on the ground. Can you give me some insight as to why so many would use intermediary??? Just your opinion, please. Thank you.
Paula
