  I hope writing things like this is purging the Watch Tower out of your system. I don't know how you can do this without going crazy. But then again, I can't read Watch Tower material without getting sick to my stomach.

It seems the thieves have branched out to the USA, offering to clean computers of malware and viruses. They direct you to download software that allows them to control your computer by remote in order to steal any valuable data and then have the nerve to charge you for it.

  My son's heart is broken

  i'm sure someone here has experienced this before.

  please help me help my son.

  his wife of 15 months told him last night that she needs her space, that what she wanted 1 year ago isn't the same as what she wants now.

  I'm sorry you and your son are going through this difficulty. But if your daughter-in-law was certain of her love for your son, she certainly wouldn't want more time away from him. Regardless of whether she's found someone else, she doesn't want her husband. Encourage your son to mourn the loss and then keep himself busy with starting a new life of his own. Even if she has a change of heart, he may decide that he likes his new life without her.

  All you can do is be there for him by advising that "This too shall pass", point out his good qualities, and encourage him to go on with his life. If she's as determined to end this marriage as she seems, she probably will refuse counseling. Your son's circumstances surrounding his job are no fault of his own.

  I have two younger sisters who are married to Navy men. They spend months apart from their husbands. Your daughter-in-law could have it much worse than she already does.

  My mother passed away this morning...

  for any old-school ex-jws here that remember my many posts about my abusive jw mother and my sister committing suicide because of it...she passed away this morning because she began to bleed out and refused a transfusion.

  she had been in the hospital for a month.

  it appears she suffered a stroke and wasn't found by the brothers & sisters for three days (they missed her at the meetings).

  Meeting with my family doctor...

  by NVR2L8 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i needed a prescription renewed and found out my old doc retired...met my new doc and took this opportunity to update my medical record...removed the no blood transfusion clause from my file.

  i told the doctor that inconsistencies within my church's doctrines made it impossible for me to put my life at risk for no valid reason.

  after throwing out my medical directive card, amending my medical record is another step toward totally breaking free from the cult.

  Did you warn the doctor that jws are encouraged to breach confidentiality?
