She originally wanted to offer the baby for adoption, but may now be leaning towards keeping him. What should I do to help her? I feel so bad that he won't even respond.

 Contact a lawyer to find out what might happen one way or another with regards the bf's rights as a father. If he doesn't want to be involved, then you don't want him changing his mind in a couple of years and suddenly demand visitation rights or whatever.

What you can do is be there to love and support your daughter and your grandbaby!
I would suggest you stay out of the business between your daughter and the father. Refrain from bad-mouthing him, let her do, but don't you! (you never know if eventually they will be together) Let her know you are there for her and the baby and whatever she decides...you will support her! Good Luck!
