Similar story here. My father become ill with terminal cancer. My mother was an RN and worked full-time. She asked for some help. She was told that "Jehovah provides", and that she should try being more regular in the field ministry, pray more, and attend all the meetings. All this, while tending to my terminally ill father at home. Chemo, radiation, Dr's appts, etc. No offers of help, ZERO. Meanwhile, at a meeting my mother happened to make during this time period, an announcement was made from the platform, that meals would be appreciated for the wife of the PO, who had to have triple by-pass surgery. A woman who never worked a day in her life, and had all the time in the world to make her own meals throughout the day while her husband was in the hospital. Yep! That's the JW's "Christian Love" for you. Freakin' hypocrites! No mention of helping our family, EVER. This entire experience (of JW love, during my father's illness) completely woke my JW mother of 20 years up. She stopped meeting attendance after his funeral, started asking me about what I was learning on the internet, and actually ordered Ray Franz's books to read for herself, before giving them to me!
