  Funky,

  your letter brought tears to my eyes - it is so heartwrenching to see how wt separates and hurts families,and I am truly sorry that you have to experience that pain.

  Your letter is very to the point yet it reflects lots of your personal pain.I think you are right to ask your brother to define how is he going to view relationship he has with you. Hopefully, that might make him do some soul searching and see how much his child is going to need his uncle or grandpa.

  whatever your brother`s answer might be, in my opinion, I hope this letter will help you move on, because you were able to express your feelings, to put the blame where it belongs, yet offer your hand of friendship. Ball is now in your brother`s corner.

  I wish you all the best and sincerely hope that you`ll get your family back.

  take care.

  there is information about complication from procedure - maybe you can look at it on http://geometry.net

  What Every Man Should Know Before Having a Vasectomy If It Works, Don't Fix It! Many men have experienced significant problems, complications, and pain following their vasectomies, which has resulted in substantial effects on their health and their lives. Often, the possibility of these types of problems was not disclosed beforehand, despite decades of research in medical literature demonstrating numerous complications. This can lead to a desperate, painful, and lonely situation for a man and his family. This web site is dedicated to sharing factual information about men's experience with vasectomy and the consequences of the procedure. Hopefully, this resource will help to shed light on this little-discussed issue for the benefit of men, their families, and the medical and other professionals who wish to help them. Kevin Hauber Founder Author of 'If It Works, Don't Fix It: What Every Man Should Know Before Having A Vasectomy' Contact Kevin Hauber Family physicians should be aware of the potential effects and complications of vasectomy so they can appropriately counsel patients seeking sterilization. Vasectomy produces anatomic, hormonal and immunological changes and... has been reputed to be associated with atherosclerosis, prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and urolithiasis [kidney stones]. Complications of vasectomy include overt failure, occasional sperm in the ejaculate, hematoma, bleeding, infection, sperm granuloma, congestive epididymitis [post-vasectomy pain syndrome], antisperm antibody formation and psychogenic impotence.

  some of you may remember that my husband suffered heart failure in may and the words "heart transplant" were mentioned often.

  he has been in heart rehab (diet and exercise and close monitoring) and meds since then.

  last week, he was told that the heart transplant was off the table.

  welcome to the forum mooneyes,

  the only admition from the wt is to justify their actions- it was never to explain what really happens. And even if they gave any explanation about being members of UN how are they going to justify hiding that fact for 10 years? No one from RF knew until Gardian paper in UK made it public. As other posters suggested there is a wealth of information where you can find what truly was going on.Enjoy your research.

  JW's Give Go Ahead for Birthdays???w/t 22/9/03

  I remember talking to a sister who was elders wife about our parents and what kind of relationship we have with them. Her mom who is also a witness woul take her out for dinner on her special day. " Special day ? what`s that" I asked. She said that was her birth day when her and her mom saw each other first time. So I a said -you mean birthday? O, she was so upset that I could not see the difference between her special day and birthday, and I truly could not because she would be treated with dinner or supper, she would get a gift from her parents and her husband, have a little get together party with family and selected friends. So just how do you call that?

  It is the same with this pinata thing - some witnesses just want to have fun so they make or brake the rules as it suits them.

  True Faith JWs - Romania?

  by mizpah in

  does anyone have further details about the dissident true faith jehovah's witnesses in romania?

  i understand they left the watchtower society because someone in the organization betrayed them to the communist officials of that country.

  is any more information on this group?

  I`ve read about this group before, but for me there is no more true faith within organized religion or movements. After jw experience, I cannot trust that anyone, no matter how honest and pure in their attempts , can give any definite answers. And I stay away from those who are exclusive in their plan of salvation - either you follow us or else...

  I belive that relationship with God is a personal experience for each individual ,however they choose to define it,and not something to be transfered into words or make as a low or dogma.
