Hi Cerise
Welcome to the forum, by the way.
Loss of family is hard when you are Disfellowshipped or Disassociated. Hopefully your sister will come to the same realizations as you have in time.
It can happen, I have a family member who basically has shunned me for 10 years and is now back in my life as he tries to exit the J.W.'s himself We were very close and it hurt so much.
It does hurt when we lose a brother or sister to the J.W.'s especially when you were truly close to them.
But I know I did the right thing way back when and never went back to the J.W.'s. I really needed to have relationships with people who loved me for who I am and not try to make me do things their way.
I've always wanted to be loved for me. I know that there will be ones who will come into your life who will not try to make you conform to what they think or believe and will love the differences between you and them.. the uniqueness of you and your map of the world is important.
Hang in there and know that you are
not alone here.
sincerely
Special K
