I agree with the others

I would not say anything about OM or your situation..
that may bring them closer..she will have to decide on her own if that R is what she wants
Your validation and kindness will help her make her decision

I like the way Roist responds about the email and your W
an empathetic view may be the best way to deal with her

a reconnection with the girls may be for everyones best interest

Even though it is easy for us to understand the girls hurt- your W may not know why they can't get past it.she probably is steeped in denial still

and I also agree her lack of words or knowing what to say to fix it
she may not fully understand the impact this had on them
especially since she hasn't talked to them

go easy
good luck
