I have to put our dog down.

oliver has skin cancer and he is bleeding all over my mom's house.

oliver is suffering so bad and all we can do is hold him now.

later today he will be put down and i don't want to do it.

Again, my heart goes out to you. But I must say that Oliver was a SMART doggie! And what you shared with us about him will be one of the things you tell to others about him and will bring a smile to your face as you tell it.

Raggie used to sniff one blade of grass FOREVER and circle it FOREVER to go to the bathroom, when I was freezing my but off! I would get so mad at him at those times!!! But because I loved him and he loved me, I would always stay outside with him no matter how picky he was about where he was gonna pee or poop, and no matter how long it took him to choose and be done with his business.

And that's one thing about him that brings a smile to my face as I remember. So keep that looking both ways before you cross habit of Oliver's in your memory forever.

peace,

heya all,.

Congratulations, Es!!!!

I hate to say this, but I can't see a baby in the Ultrasound! I feel like I'm the only female who can't. When I had both my children (who are now ages 23 and 26, I could not see them in the ultrasound pictures!!! ) and went for ultrasounds the doctor would say " See that? There's the head and there's the feet". and I honeslty could not see anything. It just looked like a picture of outer space that would be shown by NASA to me!!! I felt terrible that I could not see my own babies! "What kind of mother will I be if I can't even see my baby"? is what I asked myself both times. So I would give in just pretend I could see the baby. And looking at your baby and you expalining what is there, I still can't see it.!

Am I the only one who sees what looks to be a picture of outer space? I feel stupid for not seeing anything, but yet I'm admitting to it to see if I'm alone!!!

I could HEAR the baby ( the heartbeat ) but could not SEE. Maybe that's why it's called an UltraSOUND? I dunno.

Either way, congatulations on the latest addition to your family!

I know what you are going through, (((((((whyamihere)))))))) I've been where you are.

It's very hearbreaking and all you can do is cry until there are no more tears. But Oliver will ALWAYS be in your your heart and in your thoughts. Keeping pictures of Oliver around may help you. I know it helps me still, even after 7 years gone by now.

peace,

somebody...who will always miss Raggie, as much as you will miss Oliver.

Somebody hurt my baby! :S

by Elsewhere in

jw
friends

once again someone hurt nancy, my little mini cooper.

this time they popped the front driver side window, broke it all out, stole my tomtom gps, ripped apart the center console and tore up the 12 volt plug while ripping the gps power cable out.

the police came out and did the whole fingerprint thing and got a few bits and pieces of some prints, but we won't know if anything will come of it.

somebody

Hi Elsewhere,

I'll have you know that it wasn't me. I really wasn't!!!

I do understand when that happens to one when another one hurts your baby though and what you are feeling. It's a personal invasion of privacy. It most certainly is.

So sorry to hear what happened to your baby and you .

I hope the damage is minimum to you, after having your drink. Or at least after a month or so passes by!

peace,

friends

thats pretty much it....my at home son seems so much younger than he should be...he is now 20 but hangs with much youger dubs...and has no girlfriend to date.

i had like ten by then and had done everything but impregnate a girl................................what the hey is going on here?....................................oompa..

plus he is a ministerial servant and reg.

somebody

I was raised a JW and left home and JWdum when I was of legal age (18), and never returned. My son is 26 and my daughter is 23. Both kind of lived in and out of home through their college years, because things were tough for them finacially ( because they both worked and went to school), but they wanted to live on their own at the same time.

They now both live on their own and both have good jobs.

And I miss the old days when they were here, believe it or not!!!!

I dont understand the hate...

by JamesWind in

jw
friends

i grew up as a jehovah's witness.

my mother was uneducated and so we moved every 2-4 years as she tried to find stable enough work to support a child so ive attended many kingdom halls and have known many witnesses and many elders.

i've never gone back to the witness organization and never will.

somebody

JamesWind: >>>"No one would be disfellowshiped for a blood transfusion. The primary ingredient required in all disfellowships is a lack of remorse or extreme severity. Blood transfusion does not fall into the extreme severity category (in terms of breaking the rule) and simply acknowledging that you were scared and gave in to a transfusion would qualify you as remorseful".

I am one who HATES the organization and for as long as it exists, that hate will continue.

Accepting a blood transfusion is NOT A CONSCIENCE decsion if one has to REPENT for making a conscience decsion to accept a blood transfusion. If a JW accepts a blood transfusion, FIRST OF ALL they will be called up to meet with those who hold the title of elders in their congregation. And states," no, I was not scared and am not remorseful, then he or she WILL BE DISFELLOWHIOPPED. Is it normal to have to proove to elders that one is repentent for something there conscience tell them is not a sin and therefore does not need to be repented for? So quit trying to lie here. Most of have been there and NO that you can play with words all you want to, but it doesn't change teh FACTS. Nor does it change the FACT of what the organization is.

I won't even bother to read your excuses in the rest of this thread. For I can see what you are doing already. And no matter what you say to yourself, you are obviously NOT out of the org, mentally. And it shows.

peace,
