    DUDE,

    I know Belleville Illinois. My step son used to attend the KH out by the college with his grandparents. I'm originally from Sparta. THANKS for sharing your story.

    did you know the Keck's in Belleville? Grandma Keck (that's what we've always called her) studied with my mom .

    Jim and Margaret lived across the street from me when I was a kid.

    Buff,

    The name Keck doesn't sound familiar, but then again I was never a DUB. How about McCreary? Ever hear that name?

    Hi, buffman. Welcome. More than 20 years ago, I divorced my JW husband. Actually, he divorced me after I left and he decided I wasn't coming back. I left the org at the same time. The adjustment period can be very traumatic, but at least you have some support from this and similar sites. Back then, we who left were on our own and had no one to talk to who really understood.

    Unfortunately, JW's recruit people who are basically unhappy and already have issues. Put them in a mind control cult and those issues get totally out of hand. Glad you're free. Welcome to freedom!

    Regards,

    SandraC

    Glad to see there is a light at the end of the tunnel for you. You will feel so much better once you are rid of her and her family, and all that JW nonsense!
