    Crazy, mean people. I'm so sorry, and I hope that your nephew can rise above it.

    We shouldn't blame the mother IMO. That's not the mother speaking. She is effectively "possessed" by the Society.

    It's instances like this that highlight that the JWs are a cult and how effective their brainwashing is. They are quite literally not in their right mind.

    Update:

    David's fiance found him not breathing around 1 PM on Thursday. I guess he died in his sleep. His brother, my nephew Chris, called to tell me earlier tonight. I'll let you know when I find out more. I imagine he'll need an autopsy since he died at home. Another tragedy helped along by the WTBTS.

    Heather,

    I just read this now really tragic story. After reading through the events of last month, what a shocking update. As if it wasn't tragic enough before today.

    My condolences, thoughts, love and prayers to you and your family. It sounds as though you and he were fairly close and that he relied on you as kind, understanding, non-judgmental and loving support system. I'm sure he appreciated that.

    Are you OK?

    I hope that David's cause of death can be quickly determined and he can soon be in peace.

    His brother wrote me this during the night (His brother is a JW):

    "Even though I kept in touch with him, I don't feel like I was a good brother to him. I loved him, and told him so every time we talked..But I wasn't there for him when he needed me. He died all alone when Linnie was in the shower. I wonder what his final thoughts were."

    Chris, David's next youngest brother, had written me on facebook and decided to shun me last summer. David was never baptized, so he didn't completely shun David, but it was close. Chris invited me back as a friend on facebook. I am praying that this will wake Chris up to the division and cruelty the WTBTS has exacted in our family.

    David as three year old and as a teenager:
