That's... not an answer she expected. Amelia frowns softly, feeling rather horrible for bringing up something that's obviously quite painful. She knows first hand how much it hurts to be separated from family, though not in the same way he's feeling it now.

"I'm sorry to hear that," she offers sympathetically. "I hope you're able to spend time with her again soon. Being away from family is hard when you care for them as much as you care for your daughter."

It's all she can think to offer, knowing the kind of position Bones is in. Being separated by distance from loved ones is one of the hardest things a person can go through and Amelia can only imagine how much worse it must be when someone is actively preventing you from seeing someone.
