Is taking a blood transfusion a "Disfellowshipping or Disassoication" offense?
by booker-t ini remember back in the day when i was a devout jw in the 90s elders would go to the hospital to try and see if a person took a blood transfusion.
i remember my cousin was having surgery after a severe car accident and if he did not take blood the doctor said he would have died.
the elder came to the hospital and badgered my cousin's wife until she told him my cousin did get some blood.

Its the young brothers who are fighting their coming out and assigned this discussion I hurt for. Yes I have seen Elders assign such talks to those who they suspect of having these desires.

The timing belt didn't do engine damage, husband had it running ( ran good) but timing belt became lose so he has to tear engine down again. He has a dislike for new cars he would be happy if I would drive a 50 year old car but I said no.

Congratulations I know how thrilled you are to have wheels again. My PT Cruiser is parked in driveway with a broken timing belt. The timing belt and husband seems to be fighting a dual. Timing belt winning.

Kate I am thanful you are much better, but as a mother and grandmother I know your attending meetings has to do with your son. Be very careful attending meetings, I have spent many hours the last month trying to figure out how my JW past has affected my life. The results aren't great. At 66 years of age 20 + years of inactivity I am still discovering little things that I was brainwashed with. These brainwashing are actually causing nightmares. Be very careful how you tread. I know you are df'd but as long as you are attending meetings the have their claws in you. Much Love and worry. Gma
Edited too add. My car has been broken down for a month. Too many idle hours to think.

I have 5 close family members still JWS. This is a subject that I have given many hours of thought too. I know 2 will follow thru to death (like Jim Jones). I have 3 who I believe will go to the edge and suddenly make a u turn.

Sisters conducting meetings where there is a lack of brothers
by booker-t ini remember years ago when i was a little boy aroung 9 years old, our bookstudy conductor was in the hospital and at the last minute one of the elders asked my aunt to be the book study conductor.
this was the first time i have seen this happen.
my aunt did a very good job and the bookstudy acted as it was not something from outer space.

Yes, my sister had her own bookstudy in the early 60's. We just didn't have enough qualified brothers. Sad to say for the last 48 years she is a wife who is browbeaten and can't make decisions for herself.
