Note: I should say "some pay as little as $23 a day based on income - some more others are subsidized by the provincial government and pay nothing - but the service is mostly good in these homes - there are a few iffy ones.....

In Canada, the province where I live anyway, most hospitals are housing seniors who are sickly until they can get a bed in a nursing home. Up to 30% of the beds in the hospital in this province are taken by seniors waiting to leave the hospital to a nursing home. This impacts greatly on sick ones who need a bed but nothing will be done.., private companies have purchased land and built new nursing home and clients pay dearly per month there and they hire CCA or LPN ( a step down from RN) to assista with meals and personal hygiene however, in the provincial nursing homes, the rate paid per client is pro rated to their income - some pay $23 a day for their own room with meals and a nurse who drops in to see they are taking their meds and housework is done by staff. Not bad... its just the problem of getting that accommodation. Still more housing is needed for seniors..... -

Why did you choose Jehovahs Witnesses?
by vinman ini'm wondering why ones on this forum initially became jw's.
if you were born in, why did you make it "your own"?
if you became one later, what was your draw and driving force?

Was in love with a JW - he had great parents, esp his mom, always loved the Bible so being stupid, believing I had found my security in God and husband, got baptized .... now he is gone (died) and I am stuck in a system without family as they have all passed and those "family" of in laws in the truth are like strangers, so much for a widow without a man on her arm and their brother !

Jesus spoke of "THIS" generation -- no plurality, not "THESE" generations.....and if the rumor mill is smoking about two more younger GB being "Appointed" then they have no real date for end of system, it can go on for years and years...as long as they "KEEP APPOINTIN"..... Only Jesus description in Matthew tied in with Revelation can inidcate what we are living in/ through
It really throws out their "new light" from the 2012 Annual Meeting notes - where they say there is no hole in the ceiling where the New light comes from but a bunch of guys sitting in a boardroom and the scriptures sitting in file drawers just waiting to be tied in with so called current events as they unfold -- no great spiritual revelation for these guys, They said back in 07 QTR they are nothing special and that those who study the Bible can have as much holy spirit as they do.... makes sense to me, but then the circular reasoning goes into effect in the WT that makes them special again.... prophets my a........

the purpose of generation explanation
by poopie inok here is my 2 cents they are getting complaints concerning the drum beat that goes we are in the last hour of last min bla bla bla and people are tired and want system to end so if the system is ended sooon then why are there new partakers assuming that most have the actually calling.
so now we have a problem how do we fix it?
simple just say those new annointed are not part of this generation so now if we appoint younger guys to gb not to worry there not a part of this generation.

Sorry to hear of your predicament, It's so hard to know what to do for the best - the best being your sanity in this case with illness and wanting to have your family around you.. in our congregation it took 1 1/2 years for a sister to be re instated and after that there was a study of the Teach book, not missing a meeting, parameters set up for her, etc.... it depends on the elders in the cong and now with the DO being removed and the CO having complete control and the elders like to Kiss A....., it may not be easy... but then it may be worth it.. it's your move.
I am in but could be easily in the world, cause even with "family" I am still on my own.... life is life... and personally I like it that way - me and my kid, that's it.. no matter how much you smile and people think all is well, it isn't!
And at my age, there is no where to go

Sister attendants not able to give directions to a brother..Misogyny
by Theburstbubble inat our recent rc i was advised by a sister who was an attendant that they have been advised not to be able to give brothers directions as this should be dealt with by the brothers.
apparently at the pre-convention attendants meeting, the sisters were asked to stay behind.
this was when they were given the news that the brothers should deal with brothers.

Look, if your out in service with three gals in the car, mature sisters, and one occupant is a baptized 10 year old male, he is in charge!
You have to ASK HIM what to do -- right!
