Yes, I know I'm prattling. It's nerves.*

Well . . . I've done it. I've sent him a message. I think I'm going to have to choose between drinking for the next twenty-four hours and a reunion with the ulcer I shed long, long ago

I have nothing else to say but... Good Luck!

Thank you, Bonnie Badger. I'll need it.

Well done for making contact. Best wishes for whatever the next step turns out to be.

[the_original1]

Thank you.

And I feel bad about the Patchwork stuff. I don't mean to be letting anyone down.

[bateleur]

Much respect due for making the move.

I really hope you get a good response.

[the_original1]

Any response will be better than nothing. Uncertainty is the worst.

Well done for making the move - best of luck with whatever comes back.

[the_original1]

Thanks. Like I said to that other guy, anything would be better than not knowing anything. I haven't heard anything yet.

Love you guys!

Prior to this, do you know if he knew anything about you?

I've got a newspaper clipping from when he was three, in which he apparently knew I existed.

His mother, who put him up for adoption partly to spite me, supposedly had some sort of access, and may have told him some highly inaccurate stories. During the hearings, the other people's lawyers was getting really annoyed with her because of her stories.

Or, to sum up - I don't know.

[lorien_johnson]

understood.

y'all will get through this for the better.

I appreciate your vote of confidence. Me? Nervous as anything. I hope you're right.
