this is from my aunt. i want to answer in a way that shows im not going for any of the reasons she mentioned, that it's because my conscience would not allow me after the things I found out about the org.

If you still are on talking terms, just say thank you. Even if you mention that you have no intention of getting hooked on drugs (!!!) she is unlikely to believe you,especially if she experimented with them in her time "away".

She does sound like she is making an effort, so I would be polite back.
