So, I did it

Got confirmation that the contact with a half sister is valid, so have sent off an introductory email.

Seems that it was almost a 'deathbed' confession from my birth mother. The younger brother still doesn't know, as their father doesn't want to tell him. He is not my birth father, and that generation wanted to hide and cover up "indiscretions"

Yay! Here's hoping for an all-positive occasion and relationship.

Good for you!
