  Thank you, all. I guess I lost my mom. Yesterday she said she still wanted to see me and the baby this week. I texted her this morning about it but she never replied. I called her and sHe said she wanted to see me but I called myself an apostate and I shouldn't have said that. She tried to explain to me why apostates are so bad. I just cut her off and said "Mom, i love you. If you every want to see us, call me." She hasn't called back. That was over an hour ago. I just texted her: "You always loved your other kids more than me so I guess it's no loss."

  Then I sent a mass text:

  "You're all a bunch of hypocrites anyways. you refuse to even try and understand me. Mom begging me to tell everyone how I feel just for all of you to shoot me dead when I do. Very loving! You show me where in the bible Jesus said to shun? Am I really that evil? When you learn the meaning of Christian love I'll forgive you. ~ Your Evil Daughter/Sister/Aunt.

  don't know about my Dad. But I'm not counting on him anymore. He's not answering his phone. He sleeps a lot so he could be sleeping.

  Thank you, everyone for your kind support. I tried to reason with my mom. She wanted me to write down all my thoughts and share with my siblings. Or, go and talk to the elders. Ha! What a joke! There is no point argueing with her or any of them. They are ignorant. When your 48 year old sister proudly states on fb that her favorite book is Island of the Blue Dolphins well, how can you expect her to understand. Not that it was a bad book but it was probably only one of a few (few i mean 3 if that) "worldly" books she's ever read.

  My sister sent me this long text message and tried to defend some of their doctrine/misdeeds. All this was based on the things I told my mom. I didn't argue but she actually said: "You don't have to call the branch you can talk to the elders here" I told my mom I've researched, read the wt literature, called the branch a few times to confirm info about some things. So now the elders know more than the FDS? Huh? Is that more "new light"?

  Seriously, shaking my damn head over that one. All I can gather from that comment is she is afraid of truth herself. She'd rather live in the dark/denial than learn the truth.

  Thanks, Steve2. I'm partly suprised because we had this same discussion 10+ years ago. They didn't cut me off then. And they gave me a baby shower last fall even though me and my son's father live in sin.

  So far my oldest niece and oldest sister cut me off. I'm waiting for the goodbye texts from my other siblings. My parents asured me they would never cut me off. But I can count on my self righteous brothers to give my parents hard time about it. My mom agreed but said she doesn't care they'll never understand because they dont have children of their own.

  It's a long story but I got mad at my jealous, petty, envious, christian niece and told her she is in a cult. Right away she ran to my family and told them what I said. Mostly in my opinion she did it because she lives for drama. She was one person in my family I thought I was closest to. But I've been paying attention to her true colors lately. She was treating another niece of mine badly. She was jealous because I was spending time with her. So she started giving her a hard time telling her I am not good association. There is so much more to it but it is just too much. That's how the ball got rolling.

  I texted them all and told them I only meant that I am apostate by the myriam webster's definition. I don't picket assemblies and I don't speak badly of JWs. Not entirely true but whatever. But the word apostate is just too damn scary for them. I told them all I love them very deeply. I am here if they ever need anything or if they change their minds. We don't have to talk about our views on religion and god. And I just pleaded with them to please let me know if anything happens to our parents and to not deny me the chance to say goodbye. My mom has heart problems and my dad is diabetic and not aging well.

  I'm dealing with it. I'm angry and sad but I have my little boy now and he is the most important person in my life now. It's bringing me comfort.

  I'm kind of shocked too. I never thought this would happen.

  Don't have kids, don't buy a house, don't go to college, don't do anything without our written approval! Sick Sick Sick! Just sit tight and give us all your time and money. The end is so close! We can make better use of the money by paying off lawsuits. We need to make sure the org gets to the new world without any financial debt.

  Theredeemer, Exactly!!! I would love to hear someone comment exactly that during a Sunday WT review. Ha! Can you imagine.

  If you don't want me to buy a house then stop taking my money for new jdub bldgs! I would pay admission to go and sit in the KH while someone said this or something like it during the study. LOL

  ok, at the risk of getting flamed, i have been out for over 20 years, and still love kingdom melodies.

  i remember them for the good times, the conventions and assemblies, hearing the orchestral versions, imagining the orchestra playing.

  some pieces were really nice.

  Of course the hospital is going to try to spin the story to make themselves look better. Healthcare is "Big Business" and if there is not enough research to defend the use of this treatment in this little boy's situation you can bet your life they will not even try. I belive these parent, jdub or not. Very sad.

  I just read the update on the CNN website. So incredibly sad. The parents are doing all they can to save their child. They left the hospital as Teary O said, to seek treatment in spain that is not availble where they live.
