1992 Family Care and Medical Management for Jehovah's Witnesses. (Approx. 85MB) This publication is now unavailable from the Watchtower, with no plans for republication. This book has never been released for general distribution among Jehovah’s Witnesses, or to the general public. It was developed strictly for distribution to judges, social workers and “cooperating” medical providers and related organizations, but only when a particular need arose. Hence it is a rare thing to find one of Jehovah’s Witnesses who has even seen this book, let alone read it. This book is extremely hard to obtain. (This book was sent to us from an elder in England who walked out of his Kingdom Hall 2 weeks ago never to return) What does the front cover of this book look like?

To reach judges, social workers, children's hospitals, neonatologists, and pediatricians with information on the available nonblood medical alternatives, Jehovah's Witnesses have produced specifically for these medical personnel and officials a 260-page volume called Family Care and Medical Management for Jehovah's Witnesses.* It is a loose-leaf handbook so that it can be kept up-to-date. Since there has been some misunderstanding about family life among Jehovah's Witnesses, it also makes clear the love parents have for their children in a decidedly beneficial, caring atmosphere produced by a life-style engendered by Bible teaching.

The November 22, 1993 Awake! magazine reveals a major new offensive spearheaded
from Watchtower headquarters in Brooklyn, New York. It says JWs "are being assisted to
obey Jehovah's perfect law on abstaining from blood..." (p. 27) Committees of specially
trained JW elders now enter directly into hospitals and court-rooms, to intervene on the
Witness patient's behalf. These Hospital Liaison Committees are armed with persuasive
literature--medical, legal, and sociological.Their basic tool is a 260-page loose-leaf
handbook titled Family Care and Medical Management for Jehovah's Witnesses , updated
constantly with new information on blood substitutes, alternative treatments, and
patients' rights, plus evidence that JWs are good parents.
One aim, of course, is to stop judges from declaring JW children wards of the state for
the purpose of giving them needed blood, and to stop doctors from seeking such court
orders. Adult JW compliance with the blood ban is also enforced by the watchful elders.

He was so impressed with the Family Care volume that he ordered seven additional copies for his colleagues. Are we to believe that this judge is qualified to give a fair and impartial decision after reading Watchtower propaganda and ordering seven more copies for his colleagues? Why tamper with the jury when you can brainwash the judge? Al Capone pales in comparison!
