I wonder if you are talking about my old congo?
Supposedly one brother almost died from candida-at least, that was according to his mother (who never did let him go and lead a normal life. The poor guy will never get married thanks to his mamma).

Getting Hitched
by fullofdoubtnow ini just want to share this with you all.. a few weeks ago, trev (dedpoet) popped the question, and of course i accepted, so we are getting married!!
we have been busy getting things started since then, hence the slight delay in posting our news.
we aren't in a particular hurry, as we have no desire to have children.

Oh Merry, I'm so sorry.
Sadly, I have been to funerals where this has happened. One was the daughter of the deceased. It opened my eyes, and it was the last Witnoid funeral I ever attended. I wish I had known then what I know now, because I would definitely have gone up to this woman and stuck to her side, instead of letting her be shunned. But I thought it all was "the truth". I still feel ashamed.
Hey, I'll help you write a few letters to your family and set the record straight. You can even use my email address (if you want to send them that way ) in case your addy is blocked.

What outward signs of apostacy are evident in your house?
by AK - Jeff inif the elders came and inspected your home - what would they find?.
a casual look around reveals a box of "narnia" tissues on my desk, 12 or 14 non-witness translations of bibles on my shelves, many non approved novels [wifey's] on the reading table, plenty of 'apostate literature', a book or two on meditation, a hypnosis cd for weight loss, prob many toys that are not witness approved in the g-kids room, a half eaten birthday cake, a birthday balloon, xmas wrapping paper in the closet , a couple of r rated movies, music that is not acceptable.. that is just at first blush.
how is your house?

Well, let's see.
The American flag hanging on our house.
The Stop Watchtower Abuse stickers on our mailbox and on our vehicles.
No Trespassing sign.
And that's just on the outside. Guess they'll never see the inside.

Does the Policy of the Watchtower Create a Safe Haven for Child Molesters?

just wanting to know what you all think.
does this "sound" fair & balanced, you decide.

keo-I mean no disrespect, but I have personally had the elders tell me that if I warned anyone in the congregation about the molester I would be charged with slander. Then I was marked, then shunned-I'm sure you know the procedure. They made my decision to leave very, very easy intellectually. Emotionally it took longer.
I now proclaim to the entire world the seamy JW underworld-one I had no idea of as a JW until it effected me personally. There is no "both sides" in this particular situation.
What is, is.
