Jaguarbass, without question she will be under medication and probably institutionalized. I just got of the phone with my oldest son (10:00 pm) and I told him that Joanne just called and she wants to finish what she started. She wants to see me. Tomorrow I will share this info with her intimate family. What a sad case scenario.
Thanks for your comments.

What is your biggest problem with the JW religion?
by jambon1 inif i had to be tied down i would say disfellowshipping.
totally unnecessary and i really think it spans itself into a lot of other wt policies/mindsets.
"disagree with us and you are a dead man"

Right on Gumby. Doing any type of service for this society is NEVER enough. My son and I and went to visit her this afternoon and we still have to wait to hear how things will turn out. She is 57 years of age. Another brother from the north (Canada) will arrive soon and her daughter from Holland.
Her side of the family (not witnesses) has certainly put some blame on her religious beliefs.
We can only hope and give comfort to the family.

Report:
My sister-in-law requested to see my oldest son, he was a paramedic. Apparently they've had many discussions between each other and she requested to see him. I will go and visit her briefly. Her younger brother is a policeman, and between my son and my brother-in-law, they have had experiences with people under these circumstances.
No question she does need help, but, is she willing to help herself? I can only hope so. With my wife passing away last year (which she would often visit her) it doesn't help the situation. So, there's many contributing factors in deciding to take her life. So very sad.
Many thanks again for the encouraging words.

Tuesday 6:50 am.
Report: everything remains the same, only TIME will tell.
Purplesofa, yes, she must have a desire to live. Her problem has been keeping silent, she never shared/talked about her rape case until a few years later, this is not emotional healthy.
Her mom/dad and brother were never witnesses. Her oldest bro. was a witness, left many years ago. To do what she did in our small community will reflect negatively for the witnesses.
Again many thanks for the encouraging words. Will keep you posted.

My sister-in-law tried to take her life this afternoon. It still remains to be seen if she makes it through or not. Though a witness, she's had many bad experiences in life. As a child (not a witness then) she was often visited by a 'blob', some creature from the unknown.
She was raped at 16. She's had a bad marriage experience and is in the throes of getting a divorce. Her husband and his daughters did not make life easy for her. She has two of her own daughters and they are reliable.
She is very 'guilt' ridden and wanted to end her life. She slashed her throat and pierced her breast twice missing the heart by a fraction. When such incidents happen within your own family, it only solidifys what the witness program does to people.
48 hours will tell if she survives or not.

Commenting at Meetings: A Way Of Expressing Your Faith???
by R.F. inas we are told by the wt, commenting at the meetings is supposed to be a way of expressing your faith in the congregation.
i hardly felt this today during the wt study today or every meeting for that matter.
it seems more like this is the time when everyone wants to correct others or direct their comments in a way that it's condemnatory to others.

All comments have validity. My beef was the amount of comments given on certain paragraphs. The conductor would always spend a lot of time with the begining paragraphs and then have to rush at the end, resulting in going OVER-TIME ! This was always my main beef. Many short paragraphs had more comments then the long ones. I would lose interest in the meeting/meetings.
Yes, I would express my faith. I put the comments into my own words.
