For those of you that know me..you know that I have a little sister that is 24 years old......well today I was given her phone number by a reliable source...and as usual was very apprehensive about calling her!! But, I made a decision today to have my husband call her, and see if she would be open to speaking with me....my husband said she had the sweetest voice...and she started giggling like I do when I get nervous!! She seemed very shocked...but very nice....and she is supposed to call him back on his cell phone either today or tomorrow...she said she wanted to speak to her Mom{mine too!!} about the whole thing...but she would get back to us......the first thing I said to my husband was "Oh my gosh, that poor girl...she woke up today..and didn't realize that she has another sibling!!...I wonder if she is ok....but I don't want to call her before she gets back to me...because I want to make sure she is able to absorb it all.....help me please....I do not at all regret having my husband call her...becuause I just want to hopefully one day let her know that I am here for her....and that she has more family that cares about her....she was amazed when my husband told her that we had children....oh my gosh....give me some help here please..because the suspense of her calling back is killing me!!!! Hugs, Brenda

OK...here goes...I talked to my little sister...and she is soooooo nice...I had to call her..because I was really worried about her...and how she was after hearing the info from today about ME!! She is going on vacation for 2 weeks...but we will continue to communicate when she returns from vacation...again...she is truly incredible...and I can't believe that she didn't hang up on me!! We talked for about 45 minutes...but my kids were having a sleepover with friends..so I had to tend to them also...so I told her that I would send her some photos and a letter while she was away...and we will keep in touch..and hopefully meet soon!! Hugs, Brenda

Well, I am hoping that this all works out with my sister....but I am thinking that Joan really wants her to have nothing to do with me...that was the feeling I got when her father called us yesterday....I know this reunion with my sister and hopefully one day all my siblings...is not going to be an easy one. Because...in my mind, I think that Joan would like for me to just go away....if only she knew how much I cared....and how important this is to me!! If Joan wants nothing to do with me..I'm o.k. with that, I have resolved myself to the fact that some birthmothers just don't want any contact...and I am o.k. with that....but my birthsiblings are another matter altogether....they should be able to make they're own decisions regarding our meeting....don't you think????? Oh, this is all so complicated!!!!! I have to say....my sister's father is such a nice guy...just like her....and I truly understand his apprehension with my wanting involvement with my siblings.....but he has to understand that biologically....we are related....and that means something!! I really hope this all works out for the best....but just like any reunion...I am somewhat prepared if it doesn't. Hugs, Brenda

Oh Brenda

I am so sorry!!! I kinda of feared for this for you. Your birth mom, Joan convinced your grandmother already and is doing everything to convince your sister, too.

Is your sister's father Joan's current husband? Often Step parents are selfish of sharing their own children to half siblings.

Oh Brenda...I am so sorry! My heart cries with you.
