  She chose her tribe a long time ago. It's nice for her that they are there now.

  Enjoy the time you have with her. The love bombing will likely subside after this is over.

  Sorry to hear your news minimise. I even had the cold-hearted bastards try it on with me at my father's funeral,which was 6 months after my mother's. "You don't want to die at Armageddon and miss the chance to be reunited with your parents do you?" Classy.

  I wonder if you might slip in a few mumbles here and there when mom's out of earshot and line of sight--something along the lines of demons, Ouija, garage sale Tupperware, that sort of thing.

  I'm serious.

  They will not be sure if you're kidding, but they'll avoid irking you. I've had a high success rate with this technique.

  And it's fun.

  Tell them you'll come back, if you are made an Elder within 6 months. If they say no, tell them you feel stumbled (again).

  LOL.

  I actually did tell my mom yesterday that it was tiring that the Witnesses were trying to get me back and that I knew she was encouraging it. I told her, I'm still not going back, for her information and she said, "you're right, I did tell them. But I don't care, I did what I wanted to do and you can do what you want to do." Lol......she is something else.

  Hope you can now have some quality alone moments with her during this stressful time.

  Thanks all. After reading, Perrys situation, I don't feel so bad for myself.

  I'm sorry about your difficult situation. I'm going through something similar right now, though from what you've posted, not as bad. Hang in there...it's tough.
