I know many sisters who have CFS, and they also seem to suffer from depression. I have asked these sisters what hospital and which specialist have they seen for their illness.The answer I've always get back is that they got the symptoms of CFS as outlined in the August 92 Awake, and haven't seen a doctor for it. This really annoys me, as my wife has been seeing a specialist for years, plus she was born with a disability, which may have contributed to it. None of these sisters work, she does, full-time. She has been told by the doc to pace herself and do an normal routine everyday, but don't over do things, and she's a very cheerful woman.

fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue syndrome
by reneeisorym ini remember when i was in the dubs, there were tons of sisters all with the same set of mild depression and fibromyalgia/chronic fatigue syndrom symptoms.
i wonder if this was related to the hell jws put you through or if it was just something one woman had to have because the other did.
i haven't heard of hardly anyone having it outside of the dubs but in the congregation about 75% of the women had it!

Jean-Luc Picard. I love reading, but hate reading Shakespeare. My mother says I have a parade-ground manner.

I've only just read what that waste of space has written. The jerk has now changed his myspace profile pic to a snowboarder. But we got his picture on JWD, I hope some lurking elder in his congregation sees his ugly mug. I'm going to send him a nasty message.

Still doing Book studies before you left?
by truthsearcher ini just wondered how many of you were still doing books studies with potential converts and door to door work when you had already decided the organisation was not the truth?
how did this feel?
did you alter your approach?

I just past them on to the brothers who I went on studies with, saying that I had other commitments. I stopped going on the ministry about 5 months before leaving faking my report slip every time. I didn't want to spread any more lies.

I read this on the BBC website. Really got my blood boiling. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/southern_counties/6139662.stm This is an insult to the men who fought and died for our freedom, and Nazi scum are still around.

Our Puppy did not make it.
by Sparkplug inwell after going to bed early for it has been a long day i was awaken by my fourteen year old and she was crying for the vet just called and the puppy i got them two weeks ago just died.
the breeder was at an expo at city hall and they all gave me those "mom i am going to die if i don't have her" looks till i forked over money i did not have for this lil baby beagle.
we brought her home and i thought my she must be so tired for she slept a lot the first day.

Sparkplug there's nothing wrong in crying over a pet they're a part of the family. I cried for days when my cat died. That puppy looked really cute. Like the others have already said, get a refund.

M I 5 declares 30 terrorist cells in the UK
by hambeak inaccording to abc news this morning prime minister blair stated mi 5 says there are 30 terrorist cells operating in the uk and most are home grown.
some are suicide bombers.
what do you brits have to say about this and what should be done?

I always said there were terrorist cells in the UK for about 20years. In fact we were told in the armed forces, back in 1989 that the muslim threat will be bigger than any problems we encountered with the IRA. Too many muslims can travel to and from Pakistan, without any security checks, because of fears of being branded racist. Jamaicans cannot travel as freely as they did years ago, bacause of the Yardies smuggling drugs into the country, yet this terrorist threat is far more serious.

Is there a bird watcher in the house?
by unclebruce inthis evening i went for a walk near the mouth of the bega river, several kilometres from my place.
i enjoyed the peace and took a few photos.. for several years the pelicans here were my concern (keeping an eye on them and occationally capturing them to remove fish hooks and the like.
while there a duck billed mud stinky arrived.

I come from a military background, and I served during the 1st Gulf War. This is the 2nd year that I've worn a poppy during Remembrance, since leaving the duds.
