  My sad news

  by Fe2O3Girl in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as some of you on the board knew i was expecting a baby, i feel i should let you know that things have not worked out for us.. when i went for the 20 week ultrasound scan last thursday, severe problems were found with our baby's internal development.

  only one kidney was detected, and it was very enlarged and polycystic.

  there was no long term hope for the baby at all; if it survived to full term it could only live for hours at most.

  This is getting insane, you must have put in lots of hours in the past to get this sort of attention. LOL!!!

  This doesnt surprise me in the least, something similar happend to my sister. She was starting the fade, and one day some jw's
  came to her door and kept knocking and knocking, then pounding on the door. Then my sister realized the door was unlocked, so
  as she bolted for the door to lean up against it, they started to come in. They kept pushing on the door trying to force it open and
  my sister kept pushing on the door trying to keep it closed. It was seriously like some deranged cartoon. They ended up giving up
  and left, but she could not beleive that they did that. So, if they would go this far, i can just imagine the extremes they would go
  through to get to trap you into a converstation. Your doing the right thing by making your calls and getting them to stop, otherwise
  it will never end. Take care sweetie, I will call you soon, ok!

  Naming your children Biblical names

  by JustTickledPink in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the thread about jael got me to thinking about all the biblical names i heard from witness children.. jael, barak, elisha, elijah, noah, matthew,.

  anyone else remember new babies coming into the world and being given "biblical" names?

  i thought it was hilarious when there was baby noah.

  My husband and I are not religious people at all, but we named our son Joshua. We just love that name. My cousin who is also an
  ex-witness named her newborn Elijah. I almost thought she was going to meetings again, since she is a sentimental type of person,
  but thats not the case. Its just something about the sound of the names i think.

  Hi Chris, That makes me so upset that they are doing that to your son and you too!
  Gosh, cant they take the hint!!! I guess not, huh!

  I think its time for you to make your boundries clear, otherwise you will never have peace.
  They will always be after you and your son to "come back".

  Im sorry that you are having a hard time right now, things will get better as soon as you draw
  the line and move forward.

  Im here for you sweetie!

  Welcome!
  I wish i had some advice for you about your mom, but i dont. Im sorry that this is happening to you, but she is indeed told to limit her association with you, and other non-beleiving family members.
  That is all too familiar.
  I am sure that someone on this board will be able to answer your questions and help you along, there is alot of good information here.
  Take care and i hope you find what it is you are looking for.

  Your story sounds exactly like mine. I too was raised a jw, so to find out that everything you have ever known to
  be the truth is a lie, its quite difficult to swollow. You are going to go through all the emotions, its normal. I cried
  for about 3 weeks after i found out. Luckily my husband found this site and led me to it. It has helped tremendously in
  my healing. Bring your wife here, and let her read some of the information and the storys, she will understand alot
  more. You found the perfect place to help you in healing and actually feeling normal in this world. You will get through
  this, we will help in any way we can.

  Obligations to Friends

  are there any?

  to restate: when is comes to being friends with someone, are you "obligated" to do certain things?

  I guess it would depend on the friend. But you should never feel obligated to your friends, a true friend would not make
  you feel like you were obligated to them. When it comes to my best friend, and other close friends, i will bend over backwards to help, not out of
  obligation, but because i truly love my friends.
