  iam now as what was announced at a recent meeting that iam "no longer a jehovah's witness" all of my family and friends are witnesses so this will ailenate me from all of my friends and family.

  but i feel like i don't want to go back.

  i really hate the feeling of isolation and shamefulness while iam sitting in the meeting, what's the point of it all.

  high court rules premature baby must be given blood

  [published: monday 24, december 2007 - 18:09] the high court has ruled that a premature baby must be given a life-saving blood transfusion, despite the objections of its parents who are jehovah's witnesses.

  mr justice george birmingham has directed that the transfusion be carried out only as a last resort and when no alternative treatment is regarded as viable.

  My grandson was born 23 wks gestation- 1 lb 3 oz.

  Even though my husband and I were fearful about him receiving a blood transfusion (not because of our JW beliefs, but because of the risk of contracting diseases, etc), I let my daughter and her boyfriend know they had the make the decison themselves for the sake of thier child if they wanted him to live. (My daughter was never baptized, but reproved years earlier as an non-baptiized publisher, etc).

  They opted to have the necessary transfusions (which was not many and very little amounts because of his size) and thank goodness they made that decision.

  He is now 5 years old (yes he has some developmental problems due to his being born so early and small) but what a joy to have him alive, going to school, and growing day by day.

  The judge made the right decision.

  Note: the amount of blood transfusion this baby will receive is so small, the risk is minimal.

  I would go get it checked out immediately.

  Go to a quick care center instead of the emergency room. You can get out seen quicker by an MD.

  Do not diagnosis yourself. Dangerous move.

  for those of you that dont know me, i am a single dad with 3 boys for 5 years now, my x signed her rights away long ago.. .

  no support ever, no insurance, even before she signed her rights away, many long stories of her abuse that caused her to lose custody to me years ago, she has never dealt with her abuse over even acknowledged it, i put my kids thru years of counseling, and they do not wish to see her, she has been calling alot lately, i dont hear from her for maybe 4 months at a time, she is crying , wanting to try to see them.. i must tell you she has , mentally , physically, and mentally sexually abused them, and then charged me with sexual abuse, with which it took me a year in evaluations, and family studies , and 35,000 in lawyer fees to disprove, and the judge saw her lies and removed them from her for abuse.

  i also believe she has many emotional problems , both real and imagined.

  I think you should ask the following questions before making any decisions?

  1. Do your children really wish to see or visit with her?
  2. Has she been seeking mental help to address her many issues?
  3. If she is suicidal, would she pose a danger to herself and your children if left along with her with unsupervised visits?

  Will a visit with her really benefit your children?

  Note: this decision should be based on whether this would benefit your children, not her.

  Hi:

  I'm sorry to hear about your brother. Please remember that a person who decides to take their own life sees all their problems, faults, disappointments, failures, lack of love and lack of being loved as a sign of no way out. They view these issues through a tunnel that they feel they can never get out of.

  I suffered from depression and the almost attempt to take my life many years ago. So I know what ut means and feels like to be that depressed to get to that point.

  Our job as loving family members and friends is to help that person realize that there is an opening outside their tunnel of depression and that things will get better.

  PM me if you want me to tell you how I actually got out of such a tunnel of depression and what I personally resolved to do so as not to find myself in that terrible emotional state again. It may be able to help your brother.

  Zillow only gives estimates.

  Still need to get an appraisal done based on comparable market values in your area.

  or express her faith that jehovah will take care of her?

  Mary:

  If I did my calculations right, they will now have to pay her about $90,000 in back benefits from 6 years ago.
