Hi CathrynAnn,

I did not read the letter as I am always concerned opening word documents...

Your mom needs to call her daughters mom, there is no getting around it. Here is what I would discuss with your mom prior to the phone call.

1. Make the call on speaker phone with you identified by your mom as being a participant in the conversation, if her mom is not open to that then you know what you are facing will not be solved.

2. A list of one line reasons as to why your sister needs to know she is adopted to help your mom stay strong. The size of the words should be large enough so that your mom does not need to focus to read, the words more like headlines.

Examples:

*Medical history must be accurate to ensure your sisters health, her Doctors NEED TO KNOW. Not being truthful could be devastating.

*Everyone deserves to know the truth about where they come from and not knowing equals being lied too.

*Finding out after her mothers death will be worse than finding out now and will allow for mother and daughter to work through it together.

*Secrets do not stay secrets forever.

*Etc etc etc...

Kind regards,
Dickons
