    I HADN'T SEEN THEM IN ABOUT THE LAST 3 YRS. MY SON IS TORN BETWEEN OBEYING THE WBTS AND WANTING TO SEE ME.

    HE STAYED MOST OF THE DAY AND WE WENT OUT FOR LUNCH. MY WIFE, MY SON AND GRANDSON.

    ALL OF OF US WERE ENJOYING THE VISIT. I TOOK MY GRAND SON OUT TO OUR LITTLE ORCHARD AND WE PICKED SOME GRAPES AND NECTARINES. HE SURE CAN EAT! HE PLAYED WITH THE DOG AND WE FED AND PETTED THE HORSES.

    I DIDN'T BRING UP THE WBTS AND NEITHER DID MY SON. WE ALL HAD A GOOD TIME.

    THEN******* HE MENTIONED HIS DOCTOR THAT HE USES AND SAID HE USES HIM SINCE HE WON'T USE BLOOD.

    I DAMNED NEAR BIT MY TONGUE OFF, TRYING TO KEEP QUIET. I WAS AFRAID THAT IF I OPENED MY MOUTH, I MAY PUKE.

    ANYWAY IT IS A START. MY SON IS ABOUT THE KINDEST AND MOST CARING MAN I KNOW. HE IS VERY INTELLIGENT WITH A HIGH IQ. TRAINED IN ELECTRONICS AND PROGRAM WRITING. WHY CAN'T HE SEE THE WBTS FOR WHAT IT IS? MAYBE SOME DAY HE WILL.

    MY NON JW OLDEST DAUGHTER IS GETTING REMARRIED AFTER ABOUT 5 YEARS OF BEING SINGLE. WE ARE TAKING A TRIP TO CEDAR CITY UTAH FOR THE WEDDING. SHE WANTS ME TO WALK HER DOWN THE AISLE.

    MY OTHER CHILDREN, STILL IN THE WBTS GRIPS, WILL BE THERE ALSO. SO AFTER A FASHION WE WILL BE TOGETHER AGAIN.

    MAYBE THINGS ARE STARTING TO CHANGE. I SURE HOPE SO. WISH ME THE BEST OK?

    Grandchildren are the bestest! Good to hear you were able to spend time with your family.

    Sure hope your tongue is OK!

    or you will never see them again. It's something that is difficult to accept, but accept it you must. If you start a tyrade about the WTBTS, they will flee from you like you're the devil.

    Glad that you saw your son again.

    I am with Shamus on this..........just talk about everyday things and your relationship with them. Leave the WT at the door, out of your conversations........like its out of your life.
