Welcome Testigay,
Congratulations on your big step! Be patient, things will get better, continue to love your mother, but also be prepared just in case she starts to pull away from you. She is only doing what the WTS has told her to do!!

all began in december, when i started to stop going.

i've been out for about 4 years and for the first time i've been able to find a place that understands how hard it was for me to get to where i am today after being raised a jw.
i feel like all of you can relate to having to start a new life from scratch after years of living a completely different one.
so, thanks..
I'm a little late, but welcome BOTW!!
I've been out for 24 years and I still find JWD comforting!

i really do hate smoking odors.
i do not really hate pets but i am allergic to them.
what about you?
I used to smoke, but now I hate it. Can't stand when patients come in smelling like an ashtray and their breath
I hope I didn't smell like that!!!
I have a black lab who thinks he's human, I love him but if something happend to him, I'd never get another pet!

i apologise for taking the liberty of using my alias to attract attention but a number of people have contacted me to ask what they could do to help by way of being a stem cell donor (without a stem cell donation soon i will likely die).
i cannot express enough just how appreciative i am for such wonderful thoughtful gestures.
it is possible that your stem cells are a perfect match for me and that you could literally save my life.. however, if you are not a match you could very well save someone else's life - so do please consider being a stem cell donor.

I will register, not sure how it works here in the US but I will find out.
Keep positive thoughts!!! Don't overdue anything, get plenty of rest!!

it wouldnt work for me all day.
i missed you guys.
dont neglect me so badly lol.
I actually googled Jehovah Witness and took a look at some other sites. Found nothing special!!
JWD is the best
ed-->some thrilling experiences that just goes to show jehovah knows:
does jehovah know what is going on, and does he help?
1. the bomb planted in the kingdom hall in australia, where one brother was killed, was meant to kill everyone, and would have; but the bomb rolled backwards so the force or the blast was away from the friends, rather than aimed at them
More BS by the JDUBS -
that's what i experience when jwd goes down.. what about you?.
warlock .
I couldn't get on at all yesterday, I swear I tried a million times!!!!!
Thought I was gonna have a panic attack cause I couldn't read/post on JWD!!! Definately had withdrawal in a big way.

this is a life saving work these people are doing???
i stood and watched as a group of jws got out of the ugliest square box of a four-door car in my neighborhood, split up into two pairs and proceeded to do what i have to assume were not at homes.
the two women were walking up the driveway of the home next door to me which hasnt had anyone living in it for five years and i watched just for kicks to see how long it took them to traverse the 100 feet or so to the front door.
Door to door was the worst, I got more beating for not ringing the bell or knocking hard enough than I care to remember. I have asthma and I would make myself cough until I had an asthma attack. It got me out of field service but it also got me in bed for a couple of days, not playing, no tv etc....
It was worth it then, but now that I think about it, could have been dangerous!!

sorry to still be talking about the memorial but i have been busy.
well i wanted to tell you about this.
you know from my avatar and comments that i have been looking into religions and their descriptions of ufos and extraterrestrials in their holy books.
That would be cool, as in awesome, to hear a talk by one of the anointed. It won't be me that snickers at you. I don't miss a Memorial for the world. Not since I was first invited back in 1990. I wouldn't want to "cheapen" the event by partaking; I don't have a relationship with Jehovah and Jesus like the anointed brother you speak of; I don't have a calling like that. Earth is (actually) still home to me, after all
