  Hi and welcome Adrift.

  Isn't the days after finding out like the biggest kick in the guts. Then it all gets better after that. I had to laugh at the story

  you put there, I thought...ooooooo the Dutch District Overbeer is gonna spit when she reads that But it's true isn't it.

  It is an experience I wouldn't give up.

  Little Witch, what you said is so true.....But at least you can say it out loud. Some people are instantly comfortable, others take thyme for

  the kids to wear them down, there is no escape. Ya gotta love the little buggerz

  My son Chris is 14 soon, he has Trisomy 21, Down Syndrome. He was born 10 weeks prem due to problems, he stopped growing.

  He was born with no aesophagus and had reconstructive surgery to connect his stomach to what was his aesophagus. This only

  worked well enough to stop him drowning in spit. He is totally tube fed into his bowel as reflux was causing him lung damage when

  the tube was into his stomach. He has poor speech but good communicating skills. He attends normal high school, and has an aid with him most of the thyme. He is doing well at school, learning life skills mainly. He'll never be president, but he'll never have an enemy either.

  for some of us on this forum, we're so far away from one another.

  out of curiosity, do any of you have any photos of where you are from, or the communities that you live in?

  here's one of toronto.

  Sad again at the Service Meeting

  by Euphemism in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the service meeting on thursday was really saddening, particularly the last part, about preaching with boldness.

  it was about overcoming nervousness, shyness, etc in the ministry.. all these people gave their experiences about difficulties they had in the ministry.

  a regular pioneer (and elder's wife) admitted that she used to just pretend to ring the door bells; service is still really difficult for her, but she does it just because she feels obligated to.

  I absolutely HATED FS. I hated giving talks as much. I'm not a public speaker, felt uncomfortable doing any

  of it.

  Glad I'm out
