Well, I certainly hope Shannon answers your questions, Sally, but I wouldn't count on it -- at least not right away. From past experience, you know she has been reluctant or hesitant to share certain things -- it took awhile to see even pictures, right?
That being said, even if she says nothing right away, I think she might come around to sharing what Mary Ellen's reaction to your letter was. I think the question will have to sit with Shannon a little while before this happens.
I had to smirk to myself when I read your last post about this answer "putting all this to bed." It would be fulfilling to have this answer, but it most certainly will not put it all to bed for you, even if you are at peace with what has happened so far. I'm not sure any of this can ever be put to bed for us adoptees, if you know what I mean. I've been in reunion with my bmom for going on two years now and I still wouldn't say I've put everything to bed. I still have questions that I want full answers on. I still have processing to do, of the situation and the people involved. It's probably lifelong, I guess. Not in a bad way -- but never "put to bed."
