Rebel, I am sorry for your loss, that has to be the worst pain a person can go thru. I too, would go into a ball and never come up . That is natural, but the WT and JW's in general think it is weak to mourn,,,,,,,,,, I didnt mourn for my mom when she died for years,,, I numbed myself out so to speak and ignored my real pain. Boy did it hit me later thou . The JW's elders are nothig but bastards, sorry for the language, but they hurt more than they have ever helped. THey seem to revel in others pain and stick red hot pokers in your wounds. I have said this at least four times this week in other threads,,,,,,,,,,,,, come judgement day, they have alot to be accountable for. I hope I get to see them get theirs. If I would have stayed a JW, it would have come down to me slapping the holy hog water out of someone...... they just stayed on my ass about the most petty things,,,,,,, never taking into account sick children, possibly dying children, memories of things in the past that still hurt, depression, the whole experience we can life,,,,,, they never understood.
To heck with the JW's I am with Moe on this one,,,,,,, I get angry at them all over again when I hear how they hurt us all, especially ones like you Rebel who lost a child. To heck with them all!!!!!!!!!!!!
Many hugs to you and for your precious daughter, and other children, I have to believe we will see our loved ones again,,,,,,,,,, somewhere. Maybe she is already there, maybe that is why you have had the strength to go on,,,,,,,,, because the elders sure are not to be given credit for it, they only want to rip you apart it seems.
