Hi Belinda,
Thanks for the summary - sounds like you've really been through the mill. I totally understand why you want to keep a wide berth from JW's and any other cult or self idolizing Eddie Longs.
I asked about your sister as I've been in contact with a sibling who also left and it has been really good for both of us - we're better friends now than when we were kids. I guess that's another positive for me.
