I had lost a son but I don't know that I had posted anything about it here or on another site at which I have pictures and artwork displayed. I will have to review my blogs to see if I had shared that tragic story. When I lost my son, I lost a part of me and have never been the same since. It is a strange experience.
Were you disfellowshipped from Kingdom Hall? Do you have a son who is 17 years old? Are you looking forward to the year 2012? Do you live in California?
