Thank you, Sylvia. I am mostly broken hearted because he had so much sadness. And I think we didn't speak since August either.

Heather,
I am so saddened I don't know what to say. Maybe when the sheer nastiness of what your sister last had to say to her son dawns on her, and she realizes she can never take them back, she will finally see the evil of a religion that forces family to shun and disdain each other simply because one doesn't believe the teaching du jour from the oracles of Brooklyn. No matter that that teaching may have been apostasy yesterday, and may be again tomorrow. Who can keep track of all their flip-flopping and back-tracking?
Please accept my sincerest condolences. I wish I knew something wise to say to comfort you. All I can say is, we are all here for you and share your pain. May your nephew find the peace he was denied in life...
My best to you and yours,
Mark

Heather, I am so, so sorry to hear about your nephew. Your sister is going to have to now live with the guilt and shame knowing that the last words she communicated with her son were:
"NEVER, I REPEAT, NEVER EMAIL, CALL OR OTHER WISE TRY TO GET IN TOUCH WITH US AGAIN. YOU ARE "LIKE HEATHER" IS TO ME NOW--A WALKING DEAD PERSON."
Here's a little something for you:

Thank you, Mary, how sweet. I found out today that the picture in the red shirt was taken during the early 90's. I also found out that the day before he died that he couldn't void at all and worried about his kidneys shutting down, so he was planning to see the doctor. I looked through some e-mails I had after my sister's horrid message and realized that he told me he had nearly died earlier in the summer. He seemed pretty rattled by it. He was trying to convince himself that he was not afraid of Jehovah. My sister was nagging him, using fear tactics. I did a lot to try to console him. I am still stunned and in shock. I am sad, but I don't think the reality has set in.

RIP. Very sad for your loss.
Jehovah's Witnesses don't deserve children if they treat them in line with the WTS shunning policy.
It's sick & devoid of humanity.

(((( FHN )))) .... I am so sorry to read about David. He was such a good looking guy. I can see a softness in his pictures that makes me deeply sad that he suffered so much for no reason. This did not have to happen. I am glad you tried to help him. My heart aches for you and your family.
I told my younger brother once that if you push someone down long enough and hard enough, they won't get back up. The Watchtower pushes people down and facilitates/encourages others to push people down as well. I see no love in this. They are not about joy and creating... they are about unhappiness and destruction. These have been some of my observations in life.
Rest In Peace, David. I hope you are in a better place now.
