Hi Shocked! I can't imagine being in your position, but I can imagine being your sister. One of the reasons I haven't made contact is because I worry about what it would do to a family who has been getting along without me.
In my case, if I wanted to contact, it would be for medical info and to see where I came from. I have a wonderful (adoptive) family, but some thing are just part of your DNA. I'd love to see someone I look like!
Take your time with this. Your feelings are just as important as everyone elses. I think getting information through an intermediary makes great sense in your case. They say the best reunions are the ones that go slow and take time to grow.
Good luck, and I hope you get all the support you need here.
