  A welcome to a dear friend........"Joe"

  not sure if "joe" will be reading this, or not, but, i just want to welcome him to jwd.

  i have been a part of jwd since 2001, i think...........lol........i thank simon that there are such forums, as his, for those whole leave the wts.

  anyways, maybe "joe" and his wife will be lurkers for awhile, and maybe they will never post, but, for the record, they are victims of the wts as most of us are, here.

  Welcome Joe

  I look forward to seeing you post. I remember when I first started reading JWD...I was too afraid to post.....eventually I did. There are a lot of great people here that truly understand some of the things you are going thru...

  hello all, i haven't been here in forever!

  i just had to vent.

  sometimes we think we are past the healing process; that our lives can go on like everybody else.

  Some may not be "emotionally equipped" to deal with the funeral.

  They may choose to be emotionally supportive after the funeral and give the one that is grieving the support that is needed AFTER the funeral and not just a one shot time either. They choose to call them once a week, invite them out for dinner or coffee or a movie on a REGULAR basis.

  I know many people that lost someone at death, to have a floundering attendance at the funeral but NO support thereafter. They often feel lonely and isolated AFTER the funeral.

  As a person who lost parents in death at a very early age, I valued the continued support afterwards...........I valued that support more then a person who simply attended a funeral and felt like their good deed was done based on a funeral attendance.

  I hate funerals as well. Could have something to do with my mom dying when I was 14, watching her die of cancer.

  Even though you missed the funeral, it is the time afterwards where many people still feel sad and are still grieving. An unexpected visit to show you care will always be appreciated.
