Tell us about your Profile Pic
by Beck_Melbourne injust wondering about some of the profile pics...i think its nice to know a bit about the person you want us see, or the person you don't want us to see.
so what were you thinking when the pic was taken, how long ago, and where were you?
mine was taken last month, just after my 36th birthday.

My profile pic was taken last June in Ct. while I was on business. I stayed with my best friend Dave who owns a cottage on the shore near Old Saybrook,Ct. I was sitting on the deck looking at Long Island sound which was about 50 feet away, drinking a Brandy, and smoking a Cuban cigar. I have no idea what I was thinking about, probably how good life is out of the Borg and that I wished Tink was with me to enjoy it. Right after the pic was taken we went golfing. What a great business trip...LOL

Hi everyone. I am sorry for disappearing from the boards the past few days. I started overtime at work again and have been worn out. I just wanted to fill you in on Tink. She had another real bad attack early this morning and I brought her immediately to the ER. I requested that they do an ultra-sound on her Gallbladder. They did and she has Gallstones and has to have her Gallbladder removed. We have an appointment Monday with the surgeon. She feels better now with alot less pain, they gave her Demarol and Mepergan till she has surgery sometime Tuesday. If she gets worse over the weekend we'll be headed back to the ER. She's conked out right now but will probably be on the boards over the weekend. We'll keep you informed. Thanks for being such good friends.

The WTS preaches that things sould never be taken out of context, yet they are the worst perpitrators of taking things out of context for their own purpose, to lead people astray. That statement in the Awake just shows they have no intention of changing and never will.

Hello Cynthia and welcome! Telling your story in parts is fine. Sometimes it is too overwhelming to relate in one posting so do it at your own pace. Tinkerbell is my wife and you will find she has had very similar circumstances as your own. Our e-mail is open and you may e-mail her whenever you feel like it. We have found this forum to be life saving to us. We are all victims of the WTS and all have different circumstances but the results have been the same, it has effected our emotions, and effected our relationships with our families still in the JW religion. We have learned to cope with these pressures by being able to vent here on this forum. Again, Welcome!!

Thank you all for your support for Tink and I. She's been feeling alot better today. She'll be following up on Monday with our regular doctor to set up an ultrasound for her gallbladder. Her younger brother talked to her last night about it. The same thing happened to him and it turned out to be gallstones which they removed with laproscopic surgery pretty easily. He was back up and around in two days. One thing worried me however and I do not know if it is related or a seperate issue. Her blood pressure was 60/40 early yesterday afternoon and hadn't gotten back up to more than 90/60 by the time we went home. Is that normal? She said her pressure has always been on the low side because she has always been enimic, usually no lower than 100/80. I asked the doctors about it and they are going to have our family doc discuss it with us and look into it seperatly. She is very tired, but I suppose thats to be expected. We really appreciate all your comments and concern...y'all are the best!

Hello everyone. Poor Tink had to be rushed to the Hospital early this morning 2:00am. She went to bed fine but after several hours of pain and discomfort it got so bad she woke me up. She had severe chest pain and pain in the center of her shoulder blades. I am fixin' to go back to the hospital (only 15 min's away) after getting some rest while they run tests. They have already ruled out heart attack, and are running more tests just to be positive. They said she might have had a glabladder attack or early signs of heart problems. I personnally feel it has been a very bad year for her and she has been under alot of stress and that she might have had pain related to that. I worry about her, she's such a hard fighter, but a person can only take so much. Thank you all for always listening and being the best friends anyone could have. I'll fill you all in as to how she is doing when I get home later. Hopefully she'll come back with me today.
