What's a girl to do?

My latest correspondence with the Adoption agency...


Hi Jennifer,

I heard back from Ms. Park below – it sounds like she has not heard anything yet but is thinking of sending another telegram.  I would love your thoughts on whether or not you would like Ms. Park to move forward in sending another telegram.  Please see below:

Dear Ms. Dunn,

Since I have sent the telegram, I haven't heard back any response from the woman who we want to talk.   As you may know that her husband received the telegram from the post man.
I am thinking about to resend it one more time, but am still hesitant.   Because she is married and lives with the family members(at least her husband), I don't want her to make a trouble and need to be very careful to approach.

Thanks.
Park, Yoon-kyung

I'm torn.  What do I do?  I really want to see this through, but I don't want to cause this woman any trouble either.

I finally asked what the telegram's typically say. This was the response:

They say something like, ““we are doing work to try to find missing persons.  We think there is someone who may be looking for you.  Please call us at xxx-xxx.”  They list a cell phone number that cannot be traced back to the agency. 

That seems pretty general enough.  This woman should be able to talk her way out of this if she needed to, right?  I mean it almost sounds like a solicitation...like an email from someone in Nigeria who needs help moving money and for your help you'll get a small note of $1,000,000.  ;)

Soooo...what do I do?  I'm leaning on having them send a follow up telegram.

What do you think?

Love and Joy,
J
