Sorry for your losses, WLG.

again, (((((((((WLG)))))))))
But then I saw the eyes...the ones that reflect nothing because there is nothing behind them.
Death itself, sometimes, is more alive.

That's poignant!

I'm sorry (((WLG)))
Sleepless night last night, thinking of all the things I want to ask and say. The rub is in trying to figure out my motive...what do I hope to gain, and is it possible? I want to go to this cousin's parents, my Aunt and uncle...actually my Aunt in particular and ask her about when they were df'ed. I want to ask her why, and what made them go back. I guess I want to know what the hell is going through people's minds, but then I think of why, why do I want to know? Perhaps it is so people I care about can be on common ground with me and I can feel like I once did when I thought I had roots and a family. Maybe it is to "get back" some of my family. But then again I never really had them in the first place, maybe I just need to realize it is gone and there is no getting it back. Going down that road and getting that kind of exposure can only get me into an elders meeting.
Still sucks...they're kind of like a puppy in a way, all cute and seem loyal and loving but if your not careful you could get bitten.
nope, not puppy....
feral cat.

Honey, I am so sorry. I am so very sorry.
Please take care of yourself.
Love Always, Brooke

I don't completely agree with you that 'the blank look' you get from them shows there's nothing going on. I believe that if you say something to them, that's true and can be checked up on to see if it's true, even the most hard set JW will eventually start to think and though it may take 10 - 20 years, or even more, they may also wake up from the WTBTS nightmare.
Afterall, we got out, eventually. I used to have the same brain dead, nothing going on in there, look when any one challenged 'da troof'.
So, sorry for your loss!
I've been missing my cousins for quite a few years now, and we're all in the same sort of age group as your cousin. Mine are all unwell, some with very serious auto immune diseases. I may never get to speak to them again. There's the real tragedy of the WTBTS.
My sympathy is with you WLG. All, I can say is that in time, the pain gets better....never completely goes, but does become bearable.
Love
Gill
Oh Donnie - I am so very sorry for another close loss in your life. Know that I love you and I care about you. You do what you need to do to grieve. Too many losses recently to not give proper attention to yourself.
Love and hugs
