So true Safe- thanks for sharing that. It is like a huge edifice has crumbled, can't think how else to explain it.
Nan always used to say we are all on a ladder going up. When you get to the top rung you fall off. Its true, but a bit disconcerting to move up that one notch closer to the top.

Hi All
Been a while. Still read this forum from time to time, and a long time member originally since early 2000's.
Recently lost my last surviving grandparent, my great and wonderful nan. What a flood of emotions that released! It kind of makes you question your own mortality and bring it into much sharper focus. Nan was 88, smoking roll ups and dishing up no nonsense advice (she hated bull of any kind) right up until that dreadful vein in her head popped. Ahh nan. 5 days in the hospital until the inevitable. My lovely nan.
Mum called me on the 1st day from the hospital....'they want to increase her morphine....isn't that killing her off...?' No mum, they need to make her 'comfortable' (that dreaded cliched phrase) But it was true. Her life had really ended on that Monday morning. It just took until friday until everything else caught up.
What a bloody awful thing. 1928-2017. All that experience and knowledge, all those times I sat and chatted, all the sometimes, very directed advice she gave me. Sometimes I'd state something I was sure of in my 40 odd years on this planet, something I felt was well reasoned and thought out..... 'well that's bullshit..' would be the reply. Ahh nan. Gone. Poof!
The front garden gate was where I last saw my nan. We hugged, and I went to my car. I stopped turned back walked back up the path and hugged her again. 'I do love you nan'................ 'I know', she said in that sing song voice reply. That said everything, it was transmitted through that hug. I felt it. I really did.
I hope she does know.I really do. Ahhh. My lovely nan.

Looking forward to going to Memorial this year!
by kpop ini have some tricks to play.
i know it may sound childish but i feel that creating havoc and forcing the memorial to be postponed will be the highlight of the night!
wish me luck!.

if ever a silly statement.....'agreeing with something and deriding it are 2 different things' ......well, erm , yes.
I deride. (because I don't agree?)
I feel the victims like a battered wife ??? Erm yes that is an awful thing. So do I.

I would hope so Simon having been a guest on your forum (and thanks for that) since 2001 I don't think I have ever seen much of that 'slow to anger and understanding' type posters for those that have the proclivity to have some degree of a JW leaning in them.
Sure there have been gentle and considerate posters and even still some understandably angry ones and for the right reasons I'm sure- the thing that rags me and continues to do so- has been the consistent negative at any cost exJW comments, wherever and whenever on here and for whatever reason, it does choke out any serious conversation and just becomes a backslapping forum. I have watched many posters post and get annihilated for having any sense of a sniff of pro-Jwism in them or their posts- and get so awfully treated (Troll...being the kindest lob)
So no, I don't understand those despite how angry they are that want to disrupt a Memorial, and more importantly, I don't understand those who continue to not see that.
