Watchtower would say, "Child, should have spent those four years riding around in a car group, knocking on empty houses."
But on days like today Child might like to show something different for four years.
Thanks Metatron but the credit goes to my husband (who wised up sooner than me) and a hard working child

i just need to get this off my chest.
my wife, nina, received a visit tonight from her book study conductor and his wife.
now she's made every meeting since i stopped going 14 years ago.
I don't want you guys to be DF'd! It's too much stress to deal with and too much pain. "Nina" has so much to lose after a life time in the org. What about her dad? My policy is I put 30 years into this organization, the friends I made are mine, I earned them. After 30 yrs I deserve some benefits and I will not easily let the elders take them away. Nina has even more employment time than I do. Probably fading is your best bet for now. We had our trailer out on the Lake and there is this small hall at Branch. That may be too far but can you find another hall that does not have Ozbeck for the CO? He seems like a wonderful guy but the reality is different.
I can't believe that elder didn't want this wife knowing EBF was a convicted registered sex offender. It's called public information in the state of Texas. But those idiot elders in our hall told us their wives didn't know anything about him either, that sure makes it easier to cover up the crime, doesn't it? And that's why those women are willing to go up and hug him and welcome him to the hall. Bro Frank & JB ran the only good hall in the area and they stand up to the idiots in PP.
It's one thing to attend week after week with a child in a wheel chair, I suppose everyone gets used to it. But to have a perfectly healthy little boy and then show up in a wheel chair is a different story. I have tried to come up with an explanation of why the congregation would not have just run over and asked about your son: Here it is : One elder had just been caught fooling around with a single young pioneer sister, it was public knowledge as their picture had been in the DMN. Both were naked and on a motorcycle, the whole hall was snickering and joking about it so intensely that they didn't notice Nina. After a while a few sisters calmed down and quit laughing long enough to look for Nina but she was already gone.

researchers have found that verbal memory tests were the best overall predictor of alzheimers in the elderly,
in particular, the california verbal learning test, in which volunteers were read a list of 15 words several times and then asked to recall them 20 minutes later, was nearly 100 percent accurate in predicting who would go on to eventually develop alzheimers, .

It's scary isn't it? I thought twice about posting this article because maybe people are better off not knowing.
Odds are 10 to 1 you are probably okay, just stressed or trying to remember terms you haven't used in awhile.
You might consider getting yourself tested, I tried to find the test online but it is software that is sold and I didn't find a sample or even example.
Quote from article: There are multiple reasons why identifying Alzheimers in its earliest stages may be useful, Thies said. In addition to offering patients the opportunity to benefit from drugs that delay symptom onset, the knowledge allows them to plan their lives. If they have things theyve always wanted to do, like take a trip around the world, this could let them know they probably want to do it sooner rather than later

I really hate it when self righteous JW's are mean to the elderly.
My Great grandmother had it, but my grandmother (now in her late 80's) does not. You may not get it either. Wish I could find one of those tests to try. I think it needs to be related items on the list, right? Maybe my husband can make up something for me.

Do you think that the fact that I posted a totally blank page the first time .. . . doesn't hold out much hope for me and Alzheimers

when you were associated in the congregation, were you treated in a way that made you feel like you were a 2nd class citizen?
how were you regarded?
were you the brunt of criticism or were you pretty much well-liked?
Opphs wrong story
