There were 78+ xJWs there from 3 or 4 different countries. It was so much fun and I have lots of pictures but as I look at the pictures there are some who have successfully faded and I sure don't want to cause by problems after so many years (can you say cult)!!!!!

I went and saw Snowden this weekend. Not to minimize your feelings because you are right, we go through a tremendous amount deprogramming from a cult. But seeing how a whistleblower is being treated by a mighty nation, ostracized to a foreign country, may help put in perspective your situation and realize there are others enduring worst situations.
Unfortunately it takes time to heal. And it doesn't help that you are continually dealing with family and friends still stuck in the cult. Give yourself permission to grieve and explore what is out there without guilt.
All I can say is it does get better.

It won’t be much longer now.
by Tameria2001 ina couple weeks back my husband got a phone call from his brother, whom he hasn’t spoken to in nearly 17 years.
well i take that back, he did speak to him at the family reunion, asking him to leave.
my husband basically told him to f off, he would leave when he’s darn good and ready, but he didn’t use the word darn.

Lett facial ticks from a stroke/aneurysm?
by azor ini was speaking to my mom the other day.
she stays in the group to retain a relationship with the rest of our in family.
she told me that she heard from one of my brothers that the reason lett makes all those weird facial gestures has something to do with a stroke or aneurysm when he was a younger man.

Died Due To Refusing Blood Transfusion
by rrb2016 inwell, last monday my mother, a jehovah's witness since her baptism in 1968 died last week because she would not accept a blood transfusion.
she was 76 and had lung and skin cancer.
i know that the cancer would have gotten her anyway, but she was bleeding internally, and was told that she needs a blood transfusion, as her blood count went all the way down to 3.2 (should be 12-14.

I'm sorry for your loss. It is hard to accept a loss because of someone's misguided faith.
Dont let the silly JW dribble about their take on life and death effect you. Have deaf ears, just smile if you have to deal with them and then get the f#ck away from them and live your life.
Give yourself permission to grieve, you can't replace a mom.
Hugs,
Joy
