    Sister Judy and a elders wife came by today, I sat in the front room and smiled. The elders wife asked me what my name is, I said Shane she asked me if I was a Jehovah's Witness to which I said I used to be. I told her I used to be disfellowshipped then I did the usual thing and sent the letter then got reinstated. But I only attended a few months for many reasons one being I know they would not help me send to the authorities the witness who sexually abused my daughter even to the point of telling my daughters not to say anything to anyone, or even tell me eventually leavening it up to my kids to tell me. At that point sister Judy said "Well just who was it that reported him Shane ! I said to Judy it was me and my oldest daughter Spring and no one else. She acted like it was not possible, I told her Judy if it would not have been for me Noris the other child abuser would still be doing his daughter and grand kids. She said well Shane you know its the "truth"! I told her you mean its the truth for me to shun or ignor my loving brother Dan who was there for me when people in the truth would leave a grocery line to get away from me, not knowing the stress I was going through. I told her I could never be a witness again if it ment I had to ignor those I love in their time of need, I have had it done to me, Now that I have had it done to me I could never do it again to someone else. I looked at them both and said hell judy I had a few witness's tell my little daughter Aleigh she could not set next to me while being disfellowshipped, which made us both cry. Don't you think that is sick Judy? At that the Elders wife said do you still read the litature I said yeah from time to time, but I am NOT guilted into thinking that I have to do anything it says I let my good sense tell me now.

    Good for you! And did she finish up with that reproving question: "But how is your relationship with JeHOOOOOvah?"

    I guess you had Encouraging Visit #27, closely followed by Excedrin Headache #5.
