will-be-apostate. I am born in Eastern Europe and I have witnessed first hand lack of love, neglect, and total disinterest for their members. Back under communism, and afterwards. We had elder woman who was lonely, never married, and no immediate family. I lived in rather medium size city where everyone at least by face knew others. She stopped going to meeting and completely disappeared from KH. Couple months later DO asked to visit people who were innactive. Someone mentioned her, but nobody knew were she was living. Eventually some JW was able to find out her address and learned from the neighbors that she died at home and was discovered due decomposing odor. She was buried at city expenses. When someone brought this up, the elders answer was that they are busy with a field service. One sister even speculated that the older woman was spiritually weak and may have faded away prior the death and thus make that poor woman unworthy of resurrection.
Story like Still Totally ADD are rather common. JW have very cold relationship, lack love and support among themselves, and certainly do not help each other because they are busy preaching and doing field service. I knew JW who committed suicide, I knew entire family who took their lives in car by putting hose through the exhaust pipe into their car in the countryside (four members had died). I heard about elder who had fatal crash on his way to convention while JWs drove by and did not stop because they did not want to be late (happened around 1995-6 in Ostrava).
