I sincerely hope your treatment goes well and you are cured. A family member had sinus cancer last fall and went through the same radiation treatment with the mask. He just had his final treatment and is completely cured. He got along fine. I was with him for a few of the treatments and I admired his courage for being in that mask thing. He got to take it home with him too. Wishing you all the best. Arwen

by confusedjw inthis mask keeps me from moving as they give radiation to me.
this machine is the spherical cat scan that they use to plan treatment.

Any elders you know remarry?
by sinis inwell, i remember this goofy elder in the local kh i used to attend.
one elder in particular was a real piece of work.
his poor handicapped wife, who was extremely nice, was ruled by him with an iron hand.

Here is one for you...An elder and his stepson in the same cong. The stepson is married and gets DF. the father-in-law goes to comfort the stepson's wife and ends up having an affair with her. They eventually get married, the stepson gets another wife, the elder's first wife dies. That man is an elder today...Amazing..

For Your Eyes Only
by Outaservice inthis is not jw related but will help you read the 'posts' if you are getting a little older and your eyesight isn't what it used to be.
if you press the 'ctrl' key on your keyboard and rotate the little wheel on your mouse, it will enlarge the print on your computor screen.
i didn't know that before and found out by accident.

Hello,and a very warm welcome to the board. You have made the first step on your journey and a very difficult one to make. My posting on this board was one of the hardest things I had to do. After I made my first post I was waiting to get hit with a bolt of lightening! I have been so encouraged by the friends here. The guilt and fear that once ruled my life is no longer a problem for me. I hope you will find the "unconditional" love here on the board that you would never find at the KH.....I know I did..

Just spent the morning with my sister, her husband, and my 87 year old uncle at the yard sales. My daughter is moving into her own apt in september while going to university and I found some nice treasures for her to get her started. I am a yard sale junkie. My husband is working till ten tonight so I think I'll just relax and download some new tunes on my ipod. It is raining hard here for the rest of the day so kind of a do nothing type of day......Tomorrow will be another story....busy, busy,
