May I make a suggestion? I have no experience in this area but I know how deeply emotional family issues can be...even when they are based on insults, money etc. that are far less important than your issue.
I strongly suggest that you start a journal and record each contact. It will allow you to vent, and it will be a documented record of events. Conversations and written communications can get all messed up when high emotions are involved. Different people"hear" different things..even though the words are the same. What you share with me verbatim could throw a family member into a panic. If the Mom and your sister are trying to blend communication...well, it can't work well because they have two different relationshps with you and their receptors are unique.
I may be wrong (yes, I do mean that..I don't know) but in your eagerness to protect your sister and the increditble emotions you are experiencing it "might" be best to cut back on your efforts to explain. Your sister now knows there is a safety issue.
Her Mom now is on alert to make sure she doesn't lose her daughter. The authorities are on alert and by Monday will be more on alert. Maybe it would be best just to journal and pray for the best. You don't want your newly found sister to feel that she has to choose between you and her Mom. Your gut tells you that she cares for you and knows that you love her. I think a little break in communication might help you all. Very caring hugs coming your way. DDD
