  I liked that comment above. The question is; what was the language for the book a copy of "My Book of Bible Stories" ? Could have been in English Laguage or vietnamese language? Is that sounds for someone as young as between age of 7-8 years to put spiritual interest a head of thers immediate needs?

  JW Urban Legends, because the sheeple are gullible and will believe anything. The speaker might even believe it, probably started at Bethel by the propaganda dept.

  I read your post the other day and found similarities with this story found on my facebook page. It's like you could take the story below and substitute Jw lingo and have something to tell at the Assembly. LOL I have joked before about having a website for stories and illustrations.

  A nurse took the tired, anxious serviceman to the bedside. "Your son is here," she said to the old man. She had to repeat the words several times before the pat ient's eyes opened.
  
  Heavily sedated because of the pain of his heart attack, he dimly saw the young uniformed Marine standing outside the oxygen tent. He reached out his hand. The Marine wrapped his toughened fingers around the old man's limp ones, squeezing a message of love and encouragement.
  
  The nurse brought a chair so that the Marine could sit beside the bed. All through the night the young Marine sat there in the poorly lighted ward, holding the old man's hand and offering him words of love and strength. Occasionally, the nurse suggested that the Marine move away and rest awhile. He refused.
  
  Whenever the nurse came into the ward, the Marine was oblivious of her and of the night noises of the hospital - the clanking of the oxygen tank, the laughter of the night staff members exchanging greetings, the cries and moans of the other patients. Now and then she heard him say a few gentle words. The dying man said nothing, only held tightly to his son all through the night.
  
  Along towards dawn, the old man died. The Marine released the now lifeless hand he had been holding and went to tell the nurse. While she did what she had to do, he waited.
  
  Finally, she returned. She started to offer words of sympathy, but the Marine interrupted her, "Who was that man?" he asked.
  
  The nurse was startled, "He was your father," she answered.
  
  "No, he wasn't," the Marine replied. "I never saw him before in my life."
  
  "Then why didn't you say something when I took you to him?"
  
  "I knew right away there had been a mistake, but I also knew he needed his son, and his son just wasn't here. When I realized that he was too sick to tell whether or not I was his son, knowing how much he needed me, I stayed. I came here tonight to find a Mr. William Grey. His Son was killed in Iraq today, and I was sent to inform him. What was this Gentleman's Name? "
  
  The nurse with tears in her eyes answered, "Mr. William Grey........."
  
  The next time someone needs you ... just be there. Stay.

  The one that I heard, also about 15-20 years ago was about a Scottish JW couple that were in line to adopt refugee children. All the children were placed and they were so very sad. Lo and behold! There was one left, a little girl, somewhat older than the others. One problem, this little girl was so traumatized somewhere along the line, that she never spoke. The couple decided to adopt the little girl, and can you believe it, a miracle! When she entered her room, her eyes immediately fell on the Bible-story book. Yes, you've got it, she started speaking and could tell them her story... don't remember the rest or the moral of the story. It was so happefying, there was a tear in my eye....

  Jehovah answered the prayer of the Pioneers for a child but what about the Parents who died so that the Pioneers prayers could be answered?

  yeah - that one has been around the block more than once. it may have some basis in reality, but is "photoshopped" to make it cause gasps of delight and amazement among the non-thinkers. and again - for every blessed event such as this story implies - how many heartfelt pleas went down the river to the great sea of no return..........
