welcome to the board Z!!!!
this is probably for the brits.... i've got some frenchies coming over for lunch/dinner and i'm knocking up a traditional roast, but want to make some yorkshire puddings.
i've tried them before but their always flat / limp / crap!.
does anyone know how to make them tall and fluffy?.
lol...
well that's funny to see what you want to cook for "frenchies"!! does it mean if i go and visit you, i could taste these yorkshire puddings (don't even know what it's like...) ???
happy birthday RS !!!!!!!!!!

ok, so, i translate you the part of my friend's testimony concerning the transplant...
"at nearly 12 years old, our daughter J. felt seriously sick. she has the Hodgkin disease. This reaches the lymphatic ganglia, invades the liver, lungs, and all the nervous system. Little by little, the disease invades all organs. The question of a blood transplant comes quickly to our head. Follwing the Society's wishes, i opposed it. [...]
one day, the doctor comes to see us and took us off all our illusions. "I made everything i could. If you still refuse a blood transplant, i can't attend her anymore."
back to home, my wife and i talked all night long. on the morning, after a harsh interior fight, i tell my wife "do what you want to do!". our daughter is hospitalized once more. My wife and i are next to her during the blood transplant. At that moment, a woman enters the room. she recognises me (she is JW)! "but it's your daughter! she recieves blood!!" on the evening, she denounces me.
i must go to a legal comitee (?is that the expression you use in english??) composed by 3 elders. i'm disfellowshipped. from that moment, any JW looks at me any more. [...]
here is his story, i'm sure you can find many others on this subject...
did you try to go on ex-JWs' sites in order to read some testimonies? you may find some concerning transplants and disfellowshipping...
in a very short time here i have truely appreciated the openess of the people that post here.
the ability to share thoughts and feelings in a most respectful and honest way.
i have been thankful to be validated with alot of what i was feeling and thinking with some things regarding the jw experiance.
welcome to the board, thinking!!!

well more details... for tonight, it will be difficult i think: i need to look after the testimony of my friend (and i can't remember where i put it) and to translate it... but, i'll do that tomorrow i promise!!
my father in law died and i have been asked by my jw mother in law to take the funeral even though i am disassociated.
last night an elder rang my mother in law and told her not to be suprised if many of her close friends from the hall stay away.
i am just stunned at the callousness of it all.
sorry for what you're living chucky... this way of acting is simply obviously revolting!! they always talk about love, love, and love... is this love????? when your friends are in pain, is this love to stay away from them instead of being with them in such moments??? this is so disgusting!!
