ok, so maybe i didn't take as long a break from here as first expected, but i've accomplished what i wanted.
as far as borg stuff goes....... the co and po stopped by unannounced last week, even after i cancelled the scheduled meeting with him.
i'm finally going to be deleted as an ms thankfully.

about a friend of ours who had been informed by her elders that she .
to freedom
Cheers
as some of you may know i am fading.
well my dad, an elder, has now said that i am no longer part of the congregation, woohoo.
i am not da'd or df'd or reproved so my question is what does that mean?
thats a little confusing hey!! I wish I could no longer be in the congo without being D\A or D\F.
Congrats hun, hopefully it stays that way.

was yesterday.
it went reasonably ok, i didnt make any effort to speak to my parents instead i went and chatted to other family members i havnt seen in years.
i also had hubby's mum and dad there too for support.
Thank you all, yeah Im glad she did too, I was crying at that stage and cried more just because she reached out and touched me. For us its such a normal thing to do but for her it was a brave move to touch her D\F daughter in front of elders and other JW
i don't have much time to post as i'm headed back to the hospital, but my father collapsed this morning and had to be rushed to the hospital.
in a nutshell: he needs a blood transfusion as his hemoglobin is dropping (bleeding internally), but thanks to this fucking cult, that's not an option...........he'll accept the fractions but those bastards from the blood liaison committee have already shown up to ensure he doesn't cave............... for those of you who still believe, i'm asking you to say a prayer for my dad........and if anyone from crooklyn is reading this: you better hope my father doesn't die due to your fucked up rules, .
Big big hugs hun, pls dont blame yourself.
You and your family are constantly in my thoughts

was yesterday. It went reasonably ok, I didnt make any effort to speak to my parents instead I went and chatted to other family members I havnt seen in years. I also had hubby's mum and dad there too for support. My mum came up to me and hugged me, my dad on the other hand hardly came near me did not say hello or goodbye, only to tell me there was a viewing if I wanted to see nan again.
But what do you expect when there was a group of JW's standing there watching my every move its funny my other nan was told it was a private funeral and so she didnt attend and here were this group of JW's Im sure none of which had even met my nan standing there.
We sat in the row behind my parents and druing the service my mum leant back and grabbed my hand and held it for about 5 mins, it was the most physical contact I have had off her for over two years.
I updated my cousins and aunt and uncle what was going on as they had had no idea, other than the obvious shunning at the funeral.
My brother and his wife was a no show which we thought odd.
This was the first funeral I wore pants too, I was a little worried about how mortified my folks would be and then low and behold a JW sister turns up decked out in all black and wearing pants!!!! It was great
I got to grieve and say goodbye to my beautiful nan
Thanks for reading

I made hamburgers and cooked them on the BBQ as well as bacon, egg, pineapple and toasted my rolls on the BBQ too it was delicious. Then hubby made rhubarb and custard out of a Jamie Oliver cookbook YUMMOOOOOO
shunning still hurts for me, i admit it.
though i have no common ground with these people any longer, it is just the idea that i am treated as evil for nothing more than exiting the religion.
i was in a chinese rest on wednesday.
I hear you I really do. Its like today I will be shunned at my nans funeral (only by my folks) for leaving the borg, my brother who may be there, who got his fiance pregnant before they got married and had an abortion, and then got married in the hall, will be treated better than I.
It suxs big time and its unfair.

i didn't cry when my mother died.
i didn't cry when i saw her laying lifeless in the hospital bed, nor did i cry at the funeral.
my mother used to say bring me my flowers while i'm alive.
My nan has only just passed away, I was very close to her, I too didnt cry when I saw her in the hospital bed, today is the funeral......I just keep waiting for it to hit me, I feel I need to cry or do something to reassure my self how special and close to her I was.
But thats how I deal with death, I dont cry I go into a denial and move on.
Im sorry that you are hurting, big hugs
