  1. Is moral bankruptcy mentioned anywhere in the "wisdom" book?
  2. This "family" is really into photo filters, aren't they?
  3. Her attitude about the woman not "being an important church member" really made me angry. Are we sure she has read the Bible?
  4. I'm just guessing here, but maybe because Marfan often has a cardiac component and they don't want a kid dropping dead during strenuous workouts. Maybe?? And how would these kids even know, given that they don't go to the doctor regularly, and probably don't know the symptoms? Is there a Wisdom Book on Marfan?? This is indeed odd.
  5. If I had to guess, I would think that Jill will probably have another C-section and that Cathy will come and help out. My sincere hope is that Jill does not try another do-it-yourself delivery and have another emergency situation. I hope she has moved past that.
  6. I'm sure their "new life" will be an adjustment for them. New house, new job, new work schedule, new baby. Both big boys in school. Lots and lots of changes. Bed times may change, too. It will be interesting to see how they cope with all the changes.
  7. I'm guess they like to get up very early (I'm told some people do) and their church service starts later--maybe 11:00. That would give them plenty of time to relax by a fire in the morning. I wonder if their church is close to their neighborhood.
  8. I would not be surprised to find out that all the Duggar girls/women do wear pants regularly and only wear skirts and pretend to follow the rules when they are paid to do so or for show. I do not think this is a sincere practice for them.
  9. Either they are faking, as you say, or that is the amount that one packet of the stuff makes when you mix it with the "correct" amount of water. But then why such a tall bottle? I think just to show off. Drink water. It is healthier. That stuff with its questionable ingredients can't be good for a person. I'm sure there is a good reason why it is not allowed to be sold in Canada.
  10. This reminds me of a funny story. I know a lady from Norway who now lives in the US. She grew up in a town with a port where a lot of cruise ships would dock, and she would see a lot of US tourists. When she first came to the US, she was shocked to find out that all American women did not have blue hair. Since almost all the tourist ladies on the cruise ship had a blue rinse, she honestly thought that that is what all American women looked like.
  11. What will Jason do when there is no baby formula available on the store shelves? What will be his Know-it-all decision then?
  12. This is actually one of the better pictures of GWE. He appears clean and is wearing clothing that fits. You can't change facial features. He actually looks happy to be hugging his daughter. It is nice to (at last) see a picture of him engaged with one of his children.
  13. Does she not understand the irony? Fake/filtered photos do not represent "who you really are". (shakes head)
  14. Hospice will also provide equipment: hospital bed, commode, wheel chair, bedside fall mat--what ever is appropriate for the patient. Also supplies: diapers, wipes, bandages. meds--again whatever the patient needs for their care. If you qualify for Hospice care, you are given GREAT, compassionate care. I cannot say enough good things about Hospice. I am so grateful to them for the care they gave my dad two years ago, and my mom this year. They are also very supportive for the family. I don't know what we would have done without them.
  15. Yeah--I didn't have the impression that the poor man had a choice. Being pushed around by the Howlers in a broken office chair with his shoe falling off was just plain sad. How, by any definition, is this "honoring your father? Also, filming him in bed while he was dying was a typical Duggar touch.
  16. I have swaddled hundreds of babies over the years. Swaddling does not include forcibly shoving the knees into the abdomen.
  17. But Gabe's clothing actually fits pretty well, and he looks pretty normal. A few pounds on him and he wouldn't be bad looking. All I can do is wish him all the best. Sad.
  18. Especially when you let your children roller skate in the house.
  19. I think Jinger just loves having her own new unworn shoes that do not come from a thrift store. I don't begrudge her any new clothing, shoes, or possessions of her own, since she was denied these things growing up. I do not appreciate flaunting them on social media, however.
  20. Been there, done that, and I have so much sympathy. It is amazing how much a toenail injury can bleed! (I left a blood trail throughout the entire urgent care office) But, my nail grew back absolutely perfectly. You can not tell it was destroyed. Take care, and good luck.
  21. It was certainly the oddest episode. I was surprised at the time that JB and Mech would not only go along with this, but actually allow it to be aired. They really came off as bumpkins. And, yes, I do think JB knew what was going on, and that he had some pull with what was shown on the show.
  22. My surgeon told me to stop wearing them before my first knee surgery. Apparently they aren't good on the knees. But they are great for plantar fasciitis, and they were comfortable. But I have severe knee issues, so no more Berks. (and yes, my knee issues are really "severe", and I DO go to PT regularly, unlike BME)
