[quote=Anonymous]I’m feeling really bad about the disconnect with this family member and feel Thanksgiving is the perfect time to reach out again. It’s DHs now deceased grandfather’s much younger wife. She was outcast by the rest of the family for the whole time of their marriage, but my DH and I found her to be a pleasant, wonderful woman. We saw her a couple times a year and I would occasionally talk to her on the phone. She was “grandma” to our kids. When grandpa passed away last year, life got crazy for me (family medical issues) and work hectic for DH, and we just sort of lost touch. I don’t think our relationship will ever be the same, obviously. But she cared for grandpa and was wonderful to our children and I don’t want to forget her. I’d like to send a card for Thanksgiving, but I don’t even know what to say that articulates all of this. Should I even bother? [/quote]
