    TERRY- I'm really sorry to hear you are going through this. It's incredible how destructive it can be living with somebody who either has untreated bi-polar disorder or some other untreated depression. Your cousin's hubby Bobby needs to grow a pair and insist his wife get into treatment like yesterday. He's put up with this crap for 35 years ? Jesus Christ. Ridiculous. Nobody should have to live like that around an emotionally abusive person.

    I'm glad to hear your daughter has put you up for awhile. That's good. You needed to get out of that caustic environment your cousin had for you. Good luck on the job search and stay close to your other 6 adult children as well as they may be able to assist you also with ideas or in other ways. Please know we are here for you if you need to talk or have help in any other way, O.K. ? Hang in there friend, Peace out, Mr. Flipper

    The fortune thing about being in a financially under-endowed situation is that nobody can sue you and take away anything: you don't have anything to take! Ironically funny.

    Thanks to everybody for the kind words and the very sweet and encouraging personal messages.

    I'll bet if I were a citizen of the local Kingdom Hall the only encouragement I'd get would be from elder visits concerning my

    lack of spirtuality!

    This triggered a memory from a long way back.

    The Polytechnic congregation in Fort Worth was the one I attended for many years.

    My father in law was Spanish and he was a very down to earth and caring fellow.

    He had an ongoing bible study with a hispanic man and had brought him to a few meetings.

    The man he was studying with lost his job suddenly and his family was at risk until he could regain employment.

    My father in law raised his hand at the end of the meeting when "announcements" were being made.

    He told about the bible studies' situation and asked if it would be okay to ask the congregation if they wanted to donate anything

    for the man's family.

    I'll never forget the congregation overseer's face as he recoiled in horror!

    He blustered out a put-off and suggested they meet in the library after the meeting.

    I later learned the result of that meeting.

    My father in law was politely told not to ever do that again.

    The congregation did not provide for NON-members. It was that man's responsibility and burdening JW's with it wasn't scriptural!!

    My father in law felt bad. He thought HE HAD DONE something wrong.

    Yeah, right.

    It should have been eye-opening but, sadly, it wasn't. My father in law was humbled instead. He was already a humble man, too.

    Can some of the DFW area people help Terry out with some money so he can eat properly during this transition? I will be in the area in a few weeks and will do the same.

    I know you hate asking, Terry, but you aren't asking. I am asking.

    $600 hundred a month to defray expenses - blimey you were on to good thing Terry. Couldn't you have made an effort?
