i just received the following message from a friend this morning.. barbara.
eloise dupuis, 27 years old, died at the hotel dieu hospital in lévis, quebec, canada, wednesday, october 12th.
she died because of her religious principles.
I feel so sad for this young beautiful woman and a tragedy for baby Liam that will never know his mommy.
By the tone of the articles, I get the sense that this has the propensity of creating quite a bit of raucous for the dubs. They are so bloodguilty.
i met up with many friends of 50-60 years over the last week.
these were friends from the neighborhood, school, and kh.
i renewed some really special attachments.
I thought you got married. :)

on the mend now, and getting back into the swing of things.... great to be alive!.
Glad you are feeling better
hi guys.. im aware of the orgs blatant hints to donate, donate, donate to the org, the sacking of bethel staff, selling of buildings, reducing mags and books, emphasis on digital rather than physical books etc which is obviously a money saver - but are the wt org in money difficulty?
because elsewhere on here and on youtube there's stories of the watchtower being mega rich, one even called it "a billion dollar organization".
and if there is any money in there, who's benefiting off it?
They like to pretend they are poor, but they are rich. How rich, no one really can know for sure.
cant help it but in this video - "win the inner struggle" - during the first minute he points to his head with his index finger.
and i was just waiting him to shout out loco loudly.... https://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodprogramsevents/pub-jwbmw_201609_1_video.
and those facial expressions..sweet jesus!.
the expressions he makes makes him look so goofy.
this is my first time posting on here so i’m not sure where to start.
i’m trying to keep it as short as possible since i could expand much more.
i’ve been in the process of waking up in the last year and a half.
Hello Untruth: I was a wife like your wife is right now. As Scully and many here have said take it SLOW but keep asking those probing questions that will make her think. She may not admit it to you right away, but she will think about them.
I believe that most jw's harbour secret doubts, but the indoctrination makes it hard to see them. Given time, your wife will see it too.
A couple of posters that had a great impact on me were maximus and amazing. I've not heard of them for a long time and don't know if they have passed.
i appreciate all the expressions of interest and solidarity.
it has been a very intense week.
i started with the help of many of you, a particular war for my rights as a european citizen.. we have achieved an important space and advertising with a single complaint, which is a great success that i share with you all.. the press has not only spoken about a single complaint, but they gave a full coverage on asocial behavior of jehovah's witnesses and the last, a very hard editorial from the newspaper el periodico director (link).
sp74bb : Thank you for your courage. Your fight is our fight.
when you finally and officially exited the cult, whether it be by disfellowshipping, disassociating or fading - what was the first things you did that are considered "worldly"?.
for me, it was like crash landing on another planet that looked like earth but was completely different to the earth i knew.
i wanted to learn everything that i thought i already knew.. first things i did:.
I was a really goody tushu so for me the worst thing a did when I figured things was:
SWEAR.
