I got a response

November 9, 2017 3:16pm CST
I previously was talking about how my grandmother was found and I sent her a letter. I got the response today. She wished to never hear from me again and wants that part of her life to be over and needs no reminders in her life. I can't help but hurt for her and wonder what painful memories did this bring up

She really must have been through a lot and she needs to forget that.

That is pretty sad but at least you tried to do the right thing. It is a sad outcome but you know where you stand now.

Your response shows that you are caring and compassionate. No saying, oh poor me, she doesn't want to know me - you are just thinking of how she must be feeling and what she must have gone through. Well done.
