When i see stories like these i cant help but think abouot how ridiculous the blood doctrine is.
The FACT that you find WHITE BLOOD CELLS in milk shows what a joke the blood doctrine is.

I'm not sure even the Governing Body knows the answer to that one yet.
As I understand, this has already been ruled permissable by the Governing Body:
Left to conscience are procedures where a "quantity of blood is withdrawn in order to tag it or to mix it with medicine, whereupon it is put back into the patient."--October 15, 2000 Watchtower, p. 31.
Not sure how they can explain this as consistent but at least it's a loophole that will help a lot of people.

If he didnt tell anybody about it he could have one. If he kept it to himself.
ITS GOOD TO HEAR ABOUT SOMEONE BEING CURED OF CANCER!
