  JW comment on my facebook newspage turns my stomach..

  by Snoozy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  trying to figure out why..this is in reference to the small boy that was abducted and killed today.

  why doe they think it is their duty to turn it into a witness..this person usually posts about how great things were when she was a teen and hanging out and how she wishes she could go back to those fun times.. posts various you tubes with oldies and once in a great while she breaks from it all and posts how great jehovah is..then she goes back to all her worldly facebook friends..i really can't stomach hypocrites!.

  Same here rebel..after watching so many of my relatives die I see what pain and torment they can go through..When someone dies in their sleep they usually suffer a lot beforehand. My daughter says her father in law went peacefully but she is forgetting the 2 years he suffered trying to get a breath when there wasn't any..gasping for air..that's what emphesema does to you.

  Heart disease , your heart slowly dies and your kidneys and then you fill with water in your lungs and slowly quit breathing..usually getting pnemonia.
  Cancer, well my mom went out of her head the last two weeks and gasped and reached for us when she died.
  My fil had bone cancer and he died in a nursing home as my MIL could no longer take care of him. He could be heard screaming when you walked in the home to visit him..

  When hubby was dying he covered his head with a sheet.Hospice said that some do that because they are preparing a place where they will be oging. ??? The cancer had filled his liver and he itched constantly from the built up bile in his system..towards the end he couldn't drink and his mouth was so dry he could hardly breath..that is one reason I would hate to have a medical release for treatment towards the end..if he was in a hospital he could have had a IV and it wouldln't have been so miserable for him. But he wanted to die at home. I would never ever again recommend that to anyone. He died in his sleep..but not without suffering a lot first.

  With all this I would still, knowing I would die shortly, want to be alone..nothing worse than someone wanting to carry on a conversation when you are trying to die peacefully..

  BTW, I had the widowmaker and didn't even know it..All I had was a squeezing in both my arms..I was alone watching my daughters dogs while they were in California..I called my own ambulance, got up and opened the front door for the EMT's I had just called.. Locked the dogs up and made sure they had water..Oh yeah, I also took a shower..lol

  Snoozy..is this TMI?..

  i was in the mood today... got the tree cheap (came w/lights), decorations and ribbon for half price and made the bow myself to save money.

  i was going to put it aside until after thanksgiving, but couldn't resist completing the project.

  i just have to get some fiber fill for "snow" at the base.

  They swear their bibles aren't any different. They also explain that the name Jehovah is put in where others left it out. They also use that excuse when adding other words. It's supposed to be there but someone in past bibles left it out, we just put it back in. Or they say someone else misinturpreted the verse and they corrected it.

  They have an answer for everthing..it not they make one up..

  Halo said:"The other thing that came to mind was when I was told that I could choose a new spouse in the new system...........mine never was a JW. "

  My hubby was a JW..his Mom constantly told him and he repeated it to me many times that "He should not worry, (Because I wouldn't go back) that Jehovah will make him forget me and will give him a lovely new wife in the new system..."

  I think he was really looking forward to it..

  Too bad he didn't make it and now is not eligible to remarry ..(according to their teachings of resurrected can't marry.)

  Do you have to deal with a psychopathic person?

  by moshe in

  1. social
  2. family

  def: psychopathy (/sa?

  'k?p?i/[1][2]) is a mental disorder characterized primarily by a lack of empathy and remorse, shallow emotions, egocentricity, and deceptiveness.

  psychopaths are highly prone to antisocial behavior and abusive treatment of others, and are very disproportionately responsible for violent crime.

  When my hubby was dying from cancer my son decided it would be a good time to let us know he was divorcing his wife and mother of our 2 grandchildren and marrying a new gal as soon as the divorce was final. He was unhappy and his new gal was wonderful!

  Well she thought she could just move right into the family picture during this time and we could just throw any feelings we had for the old wife away. I voiced my unacceptance to my son and refused to meet her for a while and I was losing my husband in a month or two and really couldnl't care less if I ever met her.. I really loved his old wife and mother of my grandchildren.

  At hubby's memorial she came up to me with the old wife standing not too far away and hugged me like we just really loved each other. She Kept holding on to make sure that my old daughter in law saw it..I had to pry her arms off of me and went to my old daughter in law (ex by now) and hugged her and we cried..the new daughter in law got her nose out of joint and was pissed about that for a long time..

  She cause a big ruckus over that when I was grieving for my husband and my son was grieving for his dad..

  My son called a few days ago and informed me that he and his wonderfual new wife are getting a divorce after 8 years..

  Go figure..

  2 weeks after my heart attack my daughter called and wanted to borrow money..and would I deliver it to her as she was too tired to drive that far..

  And no she hasn't changed..and yes we are no longer on speaking terms..she got mad because I found out she was using money she borrowed from me (another time) for drugs. She called me a busybuddy and said I was no longer welcome in hers or her son's life....

  Snoozy..

  edited to add..so sorry, just caught this was supposed to be about grieving. All I can add is that it was about 2 years after hubby passed..I was still grieving..

  Australia : a JW woman dies after refusing blood

  Quote:One sister smartly comments that "when you have bled out,all you need is ringers solution to expand the volume". I thought to myself, "what a bunch of fucking retards. Will ringers solution carry oxygen to your brain? if so she needs some stat because she is brain dead"

  When I was in the hospital I had lost a lot of blood. So much so that the anesthesiologist took it upon himself to give me ringers in both hands..he said my blood count was dangerously low. The Drs that the JW's had recommended wasn't even paying attention or he just didn't care. He was the only Dr around at the time that would operate without blood. Sometimes I wonder if the bad Drs were the only ones that would agree because it was the only way they could get patients!

  Anyway I was so weak it took me over a month to get my strength back..Were the JW's there to help me? No. My non JW mom that cried when I became a JW was there to cook and clean and watch her 3 grandchildren (and my JW hubby).

  The witnesses said It was a miracle from Jehovah that I lived..I say it was a Dr that cared and a loving Mom that helped me recover.
