Here is a little bit of an example of what she is in for. Notice the age this child was before her own grandmother met her. Her "loving" granmother decided to take what happened out on her own grandaughter. I'm just glad that the grandaughter was a baby and won't remember it. Imagine if the child was say...5? This is how people who claim to imitate Jesus act towards one another. And someone said that disfellowshipping does NOT sever family ties. HA !!! LAIRS!! I got this from www.witnesses.net It was under dicussions labeled.... Thorns in the Flesh. I did a seach of posts for the last year and it was posted sometime around July or August if I remember correctly. The love just overflows over there. All I see are fellow members encouraging each other not to give in and show love. Why didn't anyone encourage this grandmother to smarten up and start acting like a mother and a grandmother. That would have set a better example of love.

My heart goes out to this child that will be coming into this world.

I've rambled enough. I'm getting carried away. Here is the post from wit.net:

I have shared your pain. My daughter was disfellowshipped one year after being baptized, at age 21. I was devastated. My husband and I went through every emotion ...and did all the questioning you mentioned. The pain was so unbearable, but I was determined to stay firm and strong for her sake. I was pioneering at the time and that was my mainstay. It kept me focused on the spiritual things.

More pain was added when she had a baby girl and I felt it was best for me not to see or get involved with the baby as long as she was unrepentant. She even brought her to the summer convention and everyone was telling me how beautiful this babe was that I felt I may never meet. That was vey painful too.

But the short story is that my daughter did 'wake up' and was reinstated when her child was 1 1/2 years old. That is when I met my granddaughter for the first time. She and I are very close now...I am making up for lost time.

My point is to let others know that there is hope. We had seen several others of her friends be disfellowshipped before she finally gave in to Satan. Most of these are back now....with many pains from having stabbed themselves all over....but back.

My daughter says that all of us; her brother, father and I, staying firm and strong in the faith is what brought her back. I am happy to see that you,too, are determined to be a 'beacon' for your child.
