ok help, Whats this sound like, more ? less? idea's ? Hi ???, I really hope you don't mind my contacting you, are you the son of ??? and ????. I am kal, daughter of ??? and ???, and i was wondering if you are my half brother, I shall understand if you do not want to contact me, as i would'nt want to hurt anyone for the world. I think if you have joined genes, you must be interested in your family history, i have done a lot of research into it. My very kindest regards Kal

I really feel for you and wish we had the answers. Maybe you could send a message first without having to tell her. Like you say he might not reply and you need not do anything. He probably feels like you do and maybe is scared to try to contact you. I had a similar experience last year but as my mum passed away a few years ago I did not have that problem.
