OMG i think i found my sister after 17 years

[iris1469]

i emailed her....I am so scared and nervous......this is the last blood relative of mine walking the face of the earth, my beloved sister,,,,,and im so scared that she isnt going to be able to accept me.....im so nervous,,,im crying right now actually.....there is no way I can go under the radar long enough to be able to get evenna chance

i have been without family since we went our seperate ways, my mom died when i was 15 and my father commited suicide one month after I turned 18....my parents were both VERY heavy alcoholics,,,,thus the black sheep of their families so I never got a chance to meet any of their brothers and sisters,,,,my aunts and uncles.....ive been so alone.....im from a small town in IDAHO, and I believe that she is living in elko nevada,,,im in LA......... please please please dont let her hate me......im really upset right now

Be strong.

I m sure she will be fine with you. She is after all family and that will win through in the end.

i'm sure she feel the need of having some family just like you, pretty much everyone do, i bet she'll be glad to know she got a sister! Good luck with her

If things were as bad as you say, I'm sure she will be even more thrilled to have a sister than abrother.  Hope it goes well.

I HAVE found her and have confirmed such. I spoke with her on the phone for over an hour,,,,i havent told her yet...she asked me why my voice sounded so weird.....i lied and tole her that its the elevation being so close to sea level....she bought it.....i really miss her, i havent k nown where she is or spoken to her on almost 18 years...i am sooooooo scared of her cutting me out of her life again......she is going to call later after work. It is then that I am going to ask for a personal email account and send her some pics,,,,,,,,,,,,,,keep your fingers crossed for me

Kitty.

Just be honest and upfront. If she doesn't want to know you, there's nothing you can do.

But no-body is worth getting over wroght over. I hope it goes well, I really do. But take it as it comes and be strong my love.

Well, did she really know you before?  Do you two have a past together?  I am sure if so, it will be easier for her to get by any differences and be your family.  Even if not, she is family! And she is to you as you are to her, the last of her family.  I have high hopes for you!

I have heard some nice stories about people meeting their long lost siblings.  I had a friend who she met her brother for the first time in her life.  They are in a relationship now!

Best of luck to you, Nicole.

As Spacial said, be honest, be yourself. Family can be difficult, but hopefully she will see you for who you are and love you even more for that.

Keep us updated, hun.

Awwwww everytime I read things here, confirms to me what is most important in life.

Nicole, my fingers are crossed for you as many others are too.  I could say from hard won experience that if your sister does hate you that's her problem not yours in any way whatsoever, whatsoever, you will have done things right that's all we can ever do, our best.
