what would you do if your 19 year old son announced to everyone on his fb list that he was engaged to be married, and this is the first you ever heard of it?.
how about if that same spawn told his fiance, who you've never met or talked to, that his whole family is dead and that you are not his real mother (or father)?
also, what if she told you through pms on fb one by one what he was claiming, and you explained each one in detail, and she didn't believe you?.
WD - I think Gayle has hit it right on the head.
Who knows what he's going through, it's just sometimes kids take it out on their moms/dads for no reason other than they know they can. You may never find out why he's like he is either.
I hope he realises what he's lost and for your sake I hope it's soon.
i've been registered at jwn for 1 year!
i've made so much progress since i first started coming here.
i was an inactive jw who was just trying to move on from what i considered a benign but demanding religion.
Serenity - Happy anniversary. Glad you're not only out but moving on with your life.
I'll never forget the moment I realised I was a member of a cult, my heart pounded so much I thought it was going to stop. I always enjoy reading your comments so I will take this opportunity to say thank you as well. xx
i have just been told that i have an ovarian cyst and need an operation to remove it.
apparently ihave had it a long time and it is a rather bizarre form of cyst called a dermoid cyst.
i was wondering if any of the ladies on jwn have had the same type or know anything about them?
I had one removed when I had my first baby (removed during C section). It had particles of hair and teeth and was non malignant, which fortunately they tend to be. I had been down to my doctors several times complaining of a lump and pain so bad it caused me to faint. He was a bit of a numpty and said it was due to normal monthly hormones.
There is a risk you will lose your ovary, but everything works just as well with one so don't worry.......... I was pregnant with my second baby within 2 months of trying:)
My cyst was the size of a grapefruit and after it was removed I was pain free for the first time in years. My tummy was also flatter than pre pregnancy.
Hope it all goes well for you and don't forget to let us know how you get on.
i am giving an update to my health.
i would like to thank everyone for the support you have given me.
i have been undergoing treatment for the cancer and so far so good.
Here's to a good recovery, hope you start feeling a bit better soon.
don't want this to turn into an irreligous rant, let's try to have a little fun .
things that just don't matter.
your neighbours religion.
Apparently according to the WT I don't matter.
hello there everyone.
i remember reading a while back about someone on here ( i think) that wrote a letter to the body of elders & headoffice that they should not take any action to disfellowship them as they would be distancing them from friends and relatives and would proceed to take legal action if the body of elders went ahead.. if anyone has that link or can point me in the right direction i'd appreciate that..
I didn't write a letter but I did tell the PO and London Bethel legal dept to leave us all alone or I would sue each and every elder in our ex-cong.
Haven't heard a word since but who knows what they will eventually do.

Woo hoo Cantleave, right from the horses mouth. Can you believe how much they lie at Bethel.
Well Angus if you weren't already d'fed...you would be now. Thanks for having the courage to go public, well done.
i see some here who seem to despise the religion.
others seem to feel that witnesses are wacky but they don't hate them.. do you hate this religion?.
Hate is such a powerful word but yes I truly hate the religion and the the organisation that is the Jehovah's Witnesses.
I hate what it did to my family, especially my eldest daughter. She went through something that she would not have had to endure if she had not been part of that vile Org. None of it was her fault and thankfully she is now well on the way to recovery, if not recovered. She is a truly beautiful person and didn't deserve the sufferings she had to endure, (things I only very recently found out about).
There is so much to hate about this religion and I hope I see it crumble in my lifetime.
As for the people....well lets just say they can't help it can they. Mind control does horrible things to a persons brain and I'm in no postition to judge anyone.
I've had to leave people behind that I will always love, but I hope they also wake up one day.
hello jwners,.
well a lot of things have been happening in my personal life.. my wife and i have been through several trials, our youngest who was born with a rare condition will be four this month and last year my wife got the "all clear" from cancer :).
financially, there have been changes too, some regular work from the last five years finished back in june of last year and the lord has been long encouraging me to use some talents he gave me once again.
Maybe you'll pop back from time to time, if not I hope things keep working out for you and your family.
Thank you for the comfort you offered me via pm when I posted about having a dream about my sister. You may have forgotten but I haven't...thank you again.
Enjoy lifes journey and may you always receive Our Lords blessings.
A fellow sister and slave of Christ.
me and my hubby went to town today to do a little shopping.
we stopped at a little place we like for lunch.
part way through our meal two ladies sat down in the booth next to us.
Classic...I bet there bums nearly ate their seats lol
