Happy to hear from you again.
Hope you both have a great weekend as you expected.
Linda and Trev, you are in my thoughts.
thankyou so much for all the good wishes you have sent us in the last few days, trev has been printing up the emails, pms and threads, and bringing the cards to show me every day, and i get a lift every time i see him coming in with more of your lovely messages to read.. it's been a tough time for both of us, and it won't get any easier.
i am dreading chemo, to be honest, but i have to bear it, as i would anything that gives me hope.
but that's for monday, and i am going to enjoy myself as much as i can this weekend.
Happy to hear from you again.

sheer madness --- perpetuated by two madmen who prevailed over the judge [almost].
"after the judge's death, as world war ii was ending and persecution against the witnesses began declining, along with the attendant drop in news-media publicity, hayden c. covington told the author [of the four presidents] that fred franz saw the prohibition against blood transfusions as a way to accomplish two things: to continue to publicize the religion, and to create an uproar in the community.
this reaction would convince the membership they were being "persecuted" and "suffering for righteousness sake," a sure sign they were "in the truth.".

a lot!!!
i have done my share of sleeping at conventions with the elbow in the side, same ol same ol.
you would know which scripture was coming before they ever said it.
I remember when I attended last 1-day (actually half of the day) assembly, I began to sleep before the program commence, then I opened my eyes, all were finished. I was too brainwashed at that time I guessed that Jehovah prevented me to learn anything. Soon after that I was DF'd.
i have been disfellowshipped since 2001. does the society still recommend that elders make annual visits to encourage people to come back?
just wondering, as i never have received one.
i do not want to go back, just wondering if this is just another lie about their fake compassion and love.
I never visit neither annual visit for DF nor house-to-house visit.

only about 15 minutes ago, i learned that my father died up the hospital this morning.
I feel sorry for your loss.
I also have lost my grandma this August.
i have depressingly frequent dreams of being back in the borg.
i am out on the work thinking why am i here i don't do this anymore.
i am in kingdom halls with my mag - underlined!
I have dreamt same dreams for a couple of years since my being DF'd. "Folks" in the cong talked to me. I always wondered "why they speak to me? they should have know that I was DF'd?"
