Moanzy,
What an amazing story. So tragec and yet harrowing. You found your way out, and that obviously took amazing strength. The secrets held by the bOrg are so great. Thanks for telling your story.
And welcome to you two pjwoman.

Have You Seen My Mother
Moanzy - you are amongst friends here even if you can't visibly see us - you can read what we write, feel the extension of love and empathy that is so real it makes our time in the Borg ever more sur-real! Live for the future and the difference you can make in your children's lives. It is very sad that their grandparents have decided an organisation run by fault filled men who they will likely never meet is more important than their grans children, but having heard how unsupportive your parent/step parents have been then your children can do a lot better without their misguidance anyway.
They have taken my right to be loved by my parents instead I got watchtower parrots for parents.
And I also wanted to say that you put this brilliantly - it is sort of funny and sort of sad. I wish I was a cartoonist so I could do a picture of a watchtower parrot to make you smile! Anyway welcome to our little island of comfort moanzy.
And To PJWoman - I never fail to feel touched when I see someone like you reach out as you did. I have felt more mothering from women who have nothing to do with JWs that I ever did within the organisation where the older women just seemed to look down on me for my youth and made spiteful comments. Well done on your strength and fortitude in beating cancer and continuing to do your part to help others. I hope you feel moved to contribute on the board again. We could do with more like you - mothers, with big hearts - so many of us, me included, feel like orphans. I wish my mother could have known me as a woman and an adult, but she rejected me before she could see how I would grow and the woman I would become. I think its her loss as much as mine, and I feel so sad for her.
hugs to you both girls!

Hi Moanzy,
What a nice surprise. I didn't know you started your own thread. Just discovered it now.
It took a lot of courage for you to tell your story. Good on ya'. And keep that chin up; you're doing great!
