Friends,
Sunday my father, a strong believing witness, former elder and still a MS, collapses at home after the new light watchtower study.
The cause was extreme stress. I asked him about his worries. He told me he's feeling old, feeling tired and see's his end comming without Armageddon.
He never thought about getting old in this world and had always a strong believe in the new world.
This week I will visit my father again to support him.

That is so sad. It is the older JWs with 50 or 60 years of service who see their dreams evaporating that I feel very sorry for.
What can you say to help him? I don't know.
I hope he keeps well Gorby.
I feel bad that as a born in I only woke up in my 30s, I can't imagine the emotions if I had awoken in my 60s or 70s.
I'm so sorry Gorby, I really do wish the best for your father and strength to you for supporting him.
Sorry to hear this.
Please keep us posted.
It is so shocking to realize things are nothing like you thought. I'm so sorry for your dad and hope he will remember how he lived his life as a good person and trying to be kind.
Gorby, (((((Hugs of friendship - Understanding and Support to You and Your Dad)))))

feeling bad for your Dad i'm concerned about the older ones in the congregations because they sacrificed their lives without the reward.
I'm sorry you have to see that with your own eyes.
I have not looked around for what this particular new light is. Is this the GB redefining themselves?
I'm sorry to hear that about your dad. I wonder how the older ones are reacting in general to the new light?
Gorby , I second what Ding said, So sorry to hear this and please keep us posted
