Days that Go From Bad to Downright Embarassing
by Crumpet inso far this monday has been one nightmare after another.. it began with discovering that overnight my computer has wiped my harddrive - everything gone - photos, msn conversations, university assignments, diaries, letters, work docs, movies, videos, unmentionables.
i feel like i have been erased!
why - i have no idea?.

Crumpet I'm sorry you're having the day from hell. Take lots of deep breathes and get yourself a nice bar of chocolate, that always helps me.

a prostitute at 16 thanks to the WT
by mathilde inyesterday i promised i would tell another ugly but true story about sexual abuse within the org,so here we go:.
my ex comes from a catholic family.his youngest sister and he became a jw at the same time ( like me they had an elder brother in the org.but not much contact with the jw) my sister in law had a large family -7 children.6 of them very pretty but also rather stupid but then came young p, a very gentle, handsome and intelligent boy.he really stood out.
he was brilliant at school and they wanted him to study- but his parents said no.somebody from school came over to talk with the parents-this man said it would be a terrible waste not to let such an intelligent young man study, but they were unshakable-it was almost paradise time and this boy would never use that education for anything- so why bother?

That is such a heartbreaking story. It makes me so sad when I hear storiess like these. It seems to be happening more and more often, or maybe we are just hearing about them more whereas before it was just brushed under the carpet. I hope whereever he is he is doing ok.

How did you spend Sunday?
by Crumpet ini spent mine enjoying a traditional sunday romp in the rural idyll that is england, communing with nature.. this, for those who dont know, translates as getting lots of manure on my shoes, nodding politely at passing ramblers, edging away from the well endowed bull, walking for a couple of miles, limbo-dancing under electric fences, and then fighting for a table along with the countryside's finest and their dogs, tucking into a traditional sunday lunch and a pint, then walking it back off - wondering if i a) i just ate one of the bull's babies and b) if i did, can he smell it?!.

Looks like you had a lot of fun Crumpet, I can't walk through fields with animals in for that very reason, and I know they smell my fear, lol.
I spent my sunday chilling this morning, going to my local coffee shop for a little caffiene fix, then I went to see some relatives. It was a really nice chilled out day.

Mouthy's Birthday Party
by truthsearcher inhey guys, i went to the party this afternoon, and mouthy wanted me to post about it and let you know that she is really busy with company right now, but will post again sometime soon.. anyway, mouthy's party was lots of fun--almost everyone there were ex-jws.
i really enjoyed meeting them and talking about their experiences.
they all had their eyes opened in different ways--for some it was a gradual awakening, for others it was a sudden unexpected scripture verse and bingo, the blinders were off!

MY HUSBAND HAD A HEART ATTACK, NOT DOING WELL
by orangefatcat ini guess many of you wondered where i have been off to again ... mylast post was about my hospital stay and now marco is in the hospital since monday in critacal conditon, requiring a quadruple by pass.. the most important thing right now is to make sure they stablize him and the hospital has run many tests to see if he can take the strain of this operation.. he saw the neurologist (marco had a history of brain aneurysms) and the neurologist has given the okay and now he needs to have a memory test from the occupational therapist.. if his memory is not good they can't do the surgery as in the case of marco being 78 yrs old and having early dementia it poses a problem.
apparently with bypass surgery it can lead to full blown memory lose.
and this is my major worry.

Did You Personally Know of Sex Offenders In The Congregation?
by minimus ini knew of 1 person that should've been reported to the authorities for fooling around with his sisters when he was an older teen and they were much younger.
it was hushed up by the elders, as this was considered a very prominent family.
the allegations were made probably 20 years ago, well before i was ever in that hall.
