Hi JStar! i just have a few things to say. First of all thank you for sharing, your past journey seems tumultuous. I hope that you have found peace in your life, though it seems that not far back you said that you may be sinking into a bit of depression. All I have to say about this is, forgiveness helps. Truly, forgive yourself, I know I always felt so guilty, and forgive the people who have violated you and your siblings. Remember they are sick sick perveted people.
Then I would have to agree with others about your tatics to writing, if you do not want to be intrupted by comments, try to post larger segments. This should decrease the number of comments between the breaks in your stories. It might help you feel better venting as you wouldn't have to go back and answer questions and rehash so many memories.
I never used to believe that I was ever worth anything, but I truly believe keep a postive mind and good things will happen...
Miss Terious

I've got a short one for you, that comes to mind.
My grandpa took sick, and became what he called, "bedfast." He stayed in his bed for several weeks and wouldn't come out, It was very unlike him. He was always active and doing something around the property. We rarely saw him sit. He was so sick, that he moved into the house with us.
During this time, my mom bought a pet nanny goat for my brother Kenny. For the first few days, he loved that goat like, 'nobody's business.' He spent hours building a little shed for it to live in. He kept us in awe telling us funny stories about it. He couldn't do enough for it. Then, I guess he got the devil in him. I don't know. But he burned the goats house down, then became remorseful, because Nanny had nowhere to live. So he turned her loose in the house.
The first place she ran, was Grandpa's bedroom. During this time, he knew nothing about the goat. Kenny became alarmed and went and rushed Nanny out of the house. A few minutes later, Grandpa came crawling into the living room on his hands and knees, with a terrified look on his face, inquiring, "What was that thing that came and looked me in my face!!"
We explained that it was Kenny's goat. He looked instantly relieved, got to his feet and said, "Good! I thought the dan' devil came for me!" With that he went outside and started his chores as usual.

btw,
I will not be posting my oldest sister's name for verification purposes or any other reasons. She has full-blood siblings still living, as well as grown children, and grandchildren. I don't believe that I would have their blessing on this. She had no crimes of public record.
Her death was not a direct suicide, but came as a result of an attempted suicide. Her life was saved at the time. But she later died of a brain hemmorrhage, because of what the overdose did. She also suffered severe migraine headaches.

Read almost all the pages here.

First off i agree with the people that say its quite hard to read. Would be nice if you broke it into sections instead of posting a bit every 10 minutes for a half an hour sometimes.

Also my problem with this story is that i could have posted this story and given references online too! I could be anyone online posting anything i want with my evidence on google for anyone to verify.

Someone said something about everyone buying this story so easily, this is ats i thought its about denying ignorance and finding if things are true or not.

Personally i think your post style is to get as many posts as possible within this thread. Your own multitude of replies will keep it being bumped up to the top and making it seem there are more posts than there should be.

You sure do take critisism pretty badly also. Im sure youll blow up after reading this one.

I didnt read much about a witch at all. What witchly activities did she really do other than things that you just though were witch-like? Most of it was blending her demon son along with your family tradgedies instead of describing the witch herself.

Interesting story but not interesting enough for people to keep clicking over 15 pages searching for updates.

I cant shake that you are searching for sympathy for everything because you keep posting sob stories about extra things. Its almost as if you like the attn youre getting due to your lack of attention in real life. Posting things online makes you feel better when strangers feel bad for you and give you a pat on the back for being a good person. lol

Sorry my story is not up to your standards. And I have apologized for my outbursts as much as I intend to. Was your post here intended to set me off again? Too bad! I'm drained. Maybe you should take some spelling lessons or get spell check. Criticism is spelled as I have just written it. Tit for tat.
You actually read quite a bit about a witch; but you were looking for a flying being on a broomstick, perhaps? I said from the beginning that she was a self-proclaimed witch and that her charges were, 'false pretenses.' I don't think even Wicca or any relating categories of REAL witches would claim this woman.
After I was grown. I saw nothing 'witchy about her either. Just EVIL. Anything else I can help you with?

My purpose in writing this story was to keep a promise to Tampa, even though she was deceased when I made it. Contrary to what some of you think; It was not about soliciting money or sympathy. I don't see that either would do me or my family any good. It will not change anything. We had plenty of sympathy at the time of her death. That didn't change anything. It didn't heal us. It didn't bring her back. It didn't undo the damage.
What more kind of evidence do you people feel that you need? I don't know if it's possible. My genealogy has been listed on the web for quite some time. But those that want to scoff and disbelieve would just continue doing so. So, I don't think your doubts and disbelief can be satisfied. So, call me a liar, and if you think I am such a miserable sniveling whiney a*** brat; go read something else.

Edit to add: If you will notice, I can't even mention the child rapist's name other than to call him, C. Molestor. He was a pillar of the community. But no charges were brought against him. He has no criminal record. He is deceased now, but he does have innocent surviving family members, and out of respect for them, I will keep my peace on that.

Just to clarify, Jana, in case my post came off the wrong way, I wasn't stating that you were being deceptive. My point was that it's possible for anyone to gather up the info to create a story like yours. I believe your story, and also accept that some of it may not be 100% accurate due to the time that has passed since it happened to you and your family. I hope you feel compelled to continue sharing, especially if there is a therapeutic reward for doing so, regardless of the negativity that you may be met with.

EDIT: By not all of it being accurate, I mean that sometimes dates and times and finer details like colors or words or things like that can become a blur.

I take great offense at being called a liar and would jump through hoops to prove myself. I am willing to break anonymity to allow anyone who wants to, to research genealogy records on the web. I am not the only poster of the genealogy records. There are many. I believe that some Housers, as well as Watson's have posted records there. Oh, and a Peeler too, I think. She was one of our teachers in Lincolnton, that was somehow related to us. Don't remeber how, exactly. But if it would help satisfy everyone, I will give the mods or whoever, permission to reveal my real identity.
Will THIS satisfy everyone? I don't know what else I can do. You tell me.
