  SIGH... Mother troubles again...

  by Elyse867 in

  so i opened up my laptop last night, to check my email and such, and my mom had obviously just checked hers... she was still logged on, which has never happened before.

  i felt like i needed to look in her emails, which is not something i would normally do, as i hold privacy as something sacred.

  as some of you know, my mom lives with my hubby, me, and my kids.

  Tried to get my mom to watch the NBC segment last night...

  she wouldn't watch it... i told her all about it, and she of course started defending it before i was even finished.

  then we got into a long discussion, which was pretty one-sided, her telling me why the wts has the 'truth'.

  i told her all my concerns, and tried asking the 'if the wts is god's one and only 'channel' to earth, why all the changes in doctrine' question, and she of course gave me the 'light gets brighter' bs answer.

  The wisdom of my 92 year old Alzheimer's stricken grammy...

  by Elyse867 in

  so my grandma, a very devoted and loyal witness since she was in her 20's (?

  ) is now 92 and in a home, because she has very advanced dementia and alzheimer's disease.

  she has better days than others, most days she just sits and stares... she doesn't recognize most people she knew.

  PLEASE tell me I'm crazy!!!

  so... hubby and i have been getting into discussions with a lot of people lately about the wts.

  i want so bad to know what to believe... i don't believe that the 'truth' is the one true religion anymore, but i don't know what to believe anymore when it comes to certain things... what happens to you after you die, etc.

  so, i've been praying a lot (i still believe in god) asking him to direct me somewhere, just give me something to believe in.
