I KNOW I saw her name on the main forum board! Wonder why she didn't answer?
I've also seen her name several times. I'm glad she's peeking in and it is her decision if she wants to post or not - though I really would like to know how she's doing... Mercy, take your time - but you know you're always very, very welcome !!

I've seen her name also. Mercy, I hope you know how much you are loved and missed. You are in all of our prayers. I hope someday soon you'll be able to join us again. God bless.

Mercy sent me a private e-mail that I wanted to share with you! Mercy, if you read this, I hope you don't mind my sharing it with everyone! Please forgive me if you didn't want me to share it but everyone is concerned about you!
She actually sent me two, but I accidntally deleted the first one! she told me that she was doing okay, that she was seeing a doctor, and that she had gotten a new kitten!
Anyway, here is the e-mail she sent me....
Cant go to the boards, as a way to help me get off my love gave up something for me if I would give up the boards for him. I am sure you know compramise! I love siamese cats, always wanted one cause they look so neat and are super vocal. I tried gardening, but a little mole came along and is now slowly ruinning it, and no I wont have him killed. I started making my meetings well and bible studing again. WE have what is called Kingdom melodies, the songs we sing from the hall but without words. It sounds classical and I listen to that as I clean once a day and it helps. I even did some reaserch on King James about the bible. The library actually had some books on him, pretty neat info I found out. I get cash assistance from the state till I get well enough to work and with that money I am helping take care of my daughter which feels great to be able to do. So I can say that as far as tonight goes things are well. Thanks for caring:) Oh I also got a chance to do something for someone else. A scripture that I heard at the Hall 2 nights ago was this
Luke 16:10 The person faithful in what is least is faithful also in much, and the person unrighteous in what is least is unrighteous in what is much.
They go over expenses, local needs whatever is going on with the brothers elsewhere every week. Well they said there is this elderly sister who attended this Kingdom Hall a year ago, since then she moved to Fl and is sick right now. She had surgery and got infected so they gave us her address for if we wanted to write her and see how she is doing. And another sister from the hall here fell down, she is elderly also and got hurt bad. They gave also her address and number. Well I was thinking of that scripture and decited to write them both. I dont know them but can you imagine how much I am sure they will love to get a letter from someone they dont even know telling them I am thinking of them! Feels good to do for others ya know.....I know if that were me I would be happy! Ok this is long enough, have a good night:)
Compassion is the sometimes fatal capacity for feeling what it is like inside somebody else's skin. It is the knowledge that there can never really be any peace and joy for me until there is peace and joy finally for you too. - Frederick Buechner
