When the attendant came by our seats with the wine he paused for a moment at S*****'s seat realizing he had stepped out. Once everyone had passed the wine the elders also stopped to pass to the brother by the door. S***** was a few feet away - totally visible through the glass but was trying not to disturb the ceremony with J*****'s fussing. They saw him out there but just ignored him and walked away. There is no mistaking what happened. It was deliberate - very obviously deliberate.
(My sister) saw the whole thing. She was so angry that she called me as soon as we got home. She said she had to hold herself back from yelling: "EXCUSE ME YOU MISSED SOMEONE!"
Wow, that brings back some horrible memories for me. It happened to me too, at the 1994 Memorial™ and as I was going through postpartum depression at the time, I wound up in hospital because I became suicidal. I figured that if I wasn't "good enough" to have the Emblems™ passed to me, while there were DFd people there having the Emblems™ passed to them, I may as well get it over with and save Jehovah the trouble of destroying me at Armageddon™. That was when I made up my mind that I had to get out of the JWs before I went out of my mind or ended up dead.
I'm sorry your ex-husband slandered you publicly too. I had him pegged as a bully on the previous thread of yours that I posted to - this just confirms my suspicions, in spades. I hope your children weren't there to hear him speak about you that way. I hope you also filed criminal charges against him that he uttered death threats against you and compelled you to leave your home with the children because you feared for your life. Public record, my dear. Public record. He is a bully and an abusive partner. You need to find a way to get your children as far away as possible from him, because if he's willing to vilify you to an audience of 800+ people, he's doing it in private with your children.
