Things start to happen

I finally get on Ancestry, a few months after my mom passed and found that one of my cousins, on my mom's side was trying to locate us. She posted the following in the year 2000. I finally found this in June 2008. At least I had my cousin's last name.

I felt bad - I don't know why. I guess that mom never knew her niece was looking for her. Mom always had self-esteem issues. Always felt, that no one loved her. Would these "issues" she always had, be rooted in her father?

So I immediately posted to the message board

The next day after I posted, someone got back to me. Things were starting to happen...
