http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.aspx?id=42252&site=3 i felt bad for the truly smart posters on the board who were linked in any way with the likes of me, and disappointed that not enough credit was given to those as oldhippy, janh, norm, kent, hilarystep, larc, pathofthorns, jt, and hawkaw all who should have been listed near the top with the others identified.

Hospice Care...

by Golden Girl in

well i called the insurance company today to see if we are covered for hospice on hubby.

they said no!..i almost fainted.

i talked with them a while and asked what would be covered.

I work for a non profit agency called Community Action. (CAA) Its Government funded so the clients arent charged. Sometimes they donate but it isnt required. I do most of the scheduling and some social work like assessing of the clients etc. Im not out in the field with the homebound clients very much, but I do know we help alot of people in your situation.

Depending on where you live, you may be able to receive free services. If you arent sure, you can call your local Social Service Agency and mention us. We are not affiliated with them but they may know if we exist in your area. We offer Personal care such a bathing etc, Homemaker Aid services such as cleaning and chore service, Respite care, which is kind of like a daycare situation which allows the primary caregiver to step out for a few hours while someone from our agency stays with the client.

I hope things work out for you. This can be such a trying situation for everyone in the family.

Recovering from shunning Part 2

by MegaDude in

one thing i found effective to recover from shunning by the jws, which devastated me, was this truth.

people tend to move in "tribes.

" i had been in a rather exotic and weird tribe, the watchtower and jehovah's witnesses.

Mega,

You are a very open and honest person. I cant imagine it being long before you hook up with that special someone. Personlly, I think you should start a Mega tribe. The world needs more people like you.

about my family here on this board

i have worked all night doing freight at kmart...you would think i would be tired by now,,,but i can not relax.... so i am going to ramble on some about this site...hahahahahahahahahahaha.

it is absolutely precious!!!!!!!!!.

i am naive and inexperienced so i have learned so much about people.... i just laugh my heart out when i see different ones fighting (big time).

I agree.

Not everyone gets along all the time. People will always have differing personalities and lifestyles. I know I have learned quite a bit since I first began posting here. A few of those who I have debated with in the past have now become very close friends of mine. There are those I have just accepted that we are too different and probably wouldnt want to take in a movie or anything. Then there are those who I hit it off with right from the start and still love to this day. Its just life I guess..

Its nice to come here and be able to express yourself and have others give feedback, even if it does put you in your place once in awhile. It causes us look at ourselves and possibly make a change for the better.

Thanks for bringing this up ugg. Take care and have a great Holiday. I know how retail can be during this time of year, dont let it get the best of ya.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to everyone!

Hormone Hostage

by Simon in

every "hormone hostage" knows that there are days in the month when all a man has to do is open his mouth and he takes his life in his hands.

this is a handy guide that should be as common as a driver's license in the wallet of every husband, boyfriend, or male child.. dangerous: what's for dinner?.

safer: can i help you with dinner?.

Simon & Angharad

You two are adorable!
