History: (Exiles III#11 (fb) - BTS) - At some point during her life, Sandra was threatened with a weapon to her face.

(Exiles III#1 (fb) - BTS) - Earth-295's Blink traveled to Earth-616, where she visited the town her parents were from in the Bahamas and sought out counterparts to her own family, including her mother's sister Sandra. Meeting several Earth-616 counterparts to her family, Blink became close with Sandra, who insisted Blink start calling her "auntie."

(Exiles III#5 (fb) - BTS) - At some point, Sandra mentioned to Blink about wanting to meet some superheroes and that her friend was looking to rent out her vacation home.

(Exiles III#1) - Blink and Sandra visited a local restaurant and Sandra expressed happiness that Blink had sought out her family even if Blink was from another reality. During the conversation, Blink experienced a vision of the Tallus, a device she recognized from her time with the reality-hopping Exiles. Sandra quickly asked what was wrong and Blink informed her that she had to teleport to the moon. Excited and thinking it was "one of those X-Men things," Sandra invited Blink to visit again in the future and told her to be safe. Blink then thanked Sandra and promised she would try to be safe, admitting she was never very good at that before teleporting away. Upon arrival, Blink sensed someone nearby and demanded they show themselves, claiming she was angry at having been interrupted during a perfectly fine lunch with her newfound auntie.

(Exiles III#5) - Following a mission against the reality-devouring Time-Eater, Blink and her newfound Exiles teammates paid a visit to Sandra's home in the Bahamas. At first surprised to hear her doorbell ringing, Sandra was happy to see Blink and welcomed her friends.

(Exiles III#6 (fb) - BTS) - Sandra's friend, needing the business, agreed to rent her vacation home to the Exiles.

(Exiles III#6) - After the Exiles rented Sandra's friend's vacation home for a week, Sandra went out on the deck with Blink and discussed how the Exiles had really taken to the island. Sandra also commented on how the Exiles had helped the island recover after recent hurricane damage had limited the tourism. Later that evening, Sandra spoke with the Exiles' Iron Lad and asked how the Bahamas were in his native 30th century reality. When the cartoonish Wolvie asked if he could have more johnnycakes, Sandra politely said he could, remarking that Wolvie had already eaten a dozen and still wasn't full. Wolvie quickly devoured the entire plate, prompting Sandra to mutter "oh my."

(Exiles III#11) - When Blink's Exiles team was attacked on Earth-616 by another team of Exiles led by the former Exile Khan of Earth-81111, Blink's teammate Captain America (of Earth-86315) suggested that Khan's Exiles would go after those closest to the team, prompting Blink to fear for Sandra's life. Teleporting to the Bahamas vacation home, Blink and her Exiles team found Sandra being held hostage by Khan's Exiles team. Sandra yelled for Blink not to give Khan's team what they wanted, reminding Blink that it wasn't the first time she had a weapon in her face. Blink began negotiating with Khan for Sandra's release but Khan's unpredictable teammates instead attacked Blink's Exiles team. Sandra then watched from behind a sand pile as Blink's Exiles team defeated Khan's.

(Exiles III#12) - After Blink's Exiles tracked Khan's team's benefactors, a group of rogue alien Watchers, and lost their teammate Iron Lad in the battle, they returned to Sandra at the Bahamas vacation home. Standing on the vacation home's deck, Sandra later watched as Blink and her Exiles teammates held a small memorial for their fallen comrades. The next morning, Sandra was listening to stories of the Exiles' adventures told by the Exile King when Blink decided to keep the Exiles together to help others across the multiverse.

Comments: Created by Saladin Ahmed, Javier Rodriguez and Alvaro Lopez.

Some online sources have Sandra being mentioned in Exiles III#3 but I could not find a place where she is specifically mentioned. Blink mentions taking time off to visit family but not Sandra specifically. As we know from Exiles III#1, Blink took time off to visit the town her parents were from and while there, met several family members (as Sandra refers to "all" the family, etc.). She did meet Sandra while visiting family members but there's no indication of when during these family meetings that she met Sandra personally and without more information, there's really no way of saying that Blink is referring to Sandra specifically in Exiles III#3 since she doesn't mention Sandra by name. A similar situation occurs in online sources for Exiles III#7. Again, Blink only mentions meeting family, not Sandra specifically.
