Does anyone know of a forum I can go to to get lots of support? Cheeko's death has hit me pretty hard. I'm looking for a forum for ones who have lost close pets. The hurt is getting to much for me to bear alone.
Thanks!

just got off the phone with the judicial committee, the same one that i blew off last sunday.
i wasn't even sure they'd call, but come to think of it, i think that's just what they're supposed to do if i don't show up.
they called as a conference call (none of them has been willing to talk to me on the phone alone!
You know...that's a good idea. I think I'll throw Dave a DF'ing parting. ummm...who to invite. I know Dave will see this post so I'll get his help in deciding who will come and where, when, what and how. I already can think of several ones around here that are exJ's that may like to come. After all, he deserves it because of "play acting" at my JC and helping extend my relationship with my family.
And if anyone is wondering. If my elders decide to "check" these post out. Or try to search on what I've written...I'm preparing a DA letter for myself. Because here's how I figure..if they go through all the trouble checking up on me via the internet on where and what I post, I'll be totally finished with it all together. And if I happen to catch an elder spying on me out and about, that will probably finish it as well. Better yet, I'll make them DF me for writing on an "apostate" site because then I'll ask..."well, where'd you get it from"? (heehee)

this is dave, stealing one of gina's topics.. please send your positive thoughts to gina, one of her birds died today.
she has several birds, a yellow-nape amazon (big parrot), an african gray (snuggle bird), a starling (saved as a fledgling), two cockatiels (think largish yellow parakeets), and two doves.
cheeko was a green-cheek amazon, a smallish parrot.
Thanks Dave, for starting this thread (what a sweet hubby I have)
And thank you everyone for the support. I know she's in a better place. Or at least for the moment I have to believe it for now.
Here's a pic. of my sweet Cheeko

This is Dave, stealing one of Gina's topics.
Please send your positive thoughts to Gina, one of her birds died today. She has several birds, a yellow-nape amazon (big parrot), an african gray (snuggle bird), a starling (saved as a fledgling), two cockatiels (think largish yellow parakeets), and two doves. Cheeko was a green-cheek amazon, a smallish parrot. A very sweet bird. It could talk, saying "Hi Girl!", "Pretty girl!", and Meow-ing like a cat. Gina and Cheeko played a game where Gina would meow! at her, then the bird would meow! back. Cheeko would do this for as long as Gina would.
Cheeko was one of her favorite birds, and definitely her sweetest. She's the only one I would trust not to bite me!
Tuesday the bird was acting funny, eyes drooping, listing to one side. Gina thought she was dehydrated (despite available water), so she tried to get some water into her. She also gave her a little food, since she had lost weight. She stayed up all night with Cheeko, then took her to the vet yesterday. The vet determined that she needed to be hospitalized, so they put an IV on her, gave her oxygen, and started trying to determine what was going on. She got worse last night, and finally died about an hour ago. A necropsy will tell the tale, but they think it was PDD, a fairly rare bird virus. Of course, there's the fear that her other birds may have it as well, and it incubates for years. Gina's heartbroken.
Please send some hugs Gina's way, she needs them.

Hey, who posted the barfing smiley the other day? I need it.
Here ya go Jean....
This makes me angry. These boards are (I THOUGHT) was for "healing", not for "preaching". When a JW just get out of the Borg, they (including me) don't wanna have to be "preached" to. We wanna heal.
This is the last time I'm posting to this thread. Can't take it.

Oh brother!!!
These kinds of "PREACHING" makes me sick.
Yer not making a "good witness" of your Jehovah.
i am not posting this to justify my actions, i am doing so for the benifit of any witnesses who are unsure about there feelings toward the "truth".
i was a reguler pioneer for about 8 yrs, back when it was 100 hours a month, befor thet i did a couple of yrs as a vacation pioneer, they later changed the name to auxilery pioneer, and during the following 20 yrs i had a few intermitant spells as an auxilery when i had time to.
during my pioneer years i have given talks at circuit assemblies and had assignments at district assemblies .
Where's my manners????

As I said in my other post...you now have something beautiful in front of you. YOUR LIFE.
As Joyzabel said...
Give yourself time to grieve, heal and move on. Someone first suggested to me when I came here that it will take at least 2 years before you really feel "deprogrammed".
You're down one year...one left to go.

hey guys,.
ff had her jc today.
i was all ready with quotes from the "pay attention" book and reasoning to show they should let me sit in on it, but they didn't even object.
Did you read my posting, why I left after 50 jrs a jw
Yes, I did. It seems to be a common way ex-JW's comes out. Though, (if it helps) you can also look at it another way (commenting on your thread). You still have plently of life ahead of you. Don't let them control you anymore...YOU have a beautiful opportunity. YOU can now live YOUR life and not THEIRS.
You can enjoy your life without the guilt.

Awww...Londoner, you're so sweet...though, I started with my doubts over 6 years ago, and was finished with it about 2 years ago. We both came out completely at the same time. I just said I was going to go just to play the "good little witness" to get them to back off.
Though, thanks for giving my husband "good advice". I STILL love the hugs anyway.
