She's now essentially blind & deaf and has shunned the spotlight (essentially living as a recluse) for a long time now.
Maybe 10 years ago or so, before her health deteriorated to the point it has now, it could've been considered a longshot, as there would have been at least a possibility if you wrote a heart felt and convincing enough letter. But now, there's absolutely no way whatsoever that anyone's going to see an authentic TTM from her. It's no longer a matter of preference--she's not physically capable anymore.
The best you can even possibly hope for is a note from someone close to her telling you that they'll make her aware of what you had to say, but her signing a picture TTM will never happen. Ever.
I think you made your point
