JW dies refusing blood after Caesarean

    Jehovah's Witnesses' officials said the hospital acted appropriately in treating the woman in accordance with her wishes.

    It just warms the cockles of my bitter, little heart to see how devastated the ruling authorities of this cult are, that yet another person has died due to their f**ked up interpretation of the scriptures.

    When I told my gynecologist I quit the witnesses, he said he had the same no blood experience with a JW patient. He said that between hospital administration, the men from the congregation and the womans family, she bled to death within hours of giving birth. He was really upset about it and said she had a beautiful baby girl and would not be there to be her mother. He has a lot of JW patients, but he thinks the no blood doctrine is senseless and wrong.

    Brooklyn doesn't care how many people they kill.

    As a mom, whenever I thought about the blood issue, I knew I could never leave my son without his mother no matter what the consequences, even if they disfellowshipped me. Witnesses know they need to be prepared to decide on the blood issue. This just shows what state of brainwashing you have to be in to make a decision to die rather than live.

    I think a five year old could interpret that scripture better!

    If this woman had taken the blood she would have been alive for her baby but dead to the Witnesses.

    Who did she love the most then?

    Maybe the question should be, who did she FEAR the most?

    I wasn't going to post today until I read about this diabolic act . Maybe there is a justice higher than human justice.If there is I hope the Watchtower Leaders get what's coming to them.If there is any member of the governing body who has any doubts about this stupid blood doctrine then let them stand up NOW and be counted and do something to stop this evil practice.

    Was she asked to drink/eat blood ,? no! Just a transfer of blood in order to save her precious life.Talk about the encouragement of suicide bombers the W/T leaders are tarred with the same brush because they have promised her a life in paradise for following their instructions .Jesus would say to them that this is not an example of christian love and that they should VALUE human life not throw it away because of some obscure out of date law that has hardly any relevance in this day and age.

    To the Governing Members ; Wake up you blind men and act like true christians if that is what you claim to be ,do you realise what a mad example of your religion you are showing to the rest of the world, a world which you claim to be so evil.Check out your own way of doing things before you condemn other followers of the Christ.You sanctimonious double-dealing hypocrites ,white washed walking dead men,full of empty sayings and promises ,never lifting a finger to really help suffering humanity .You have actually taken this womans life by leading her astray by putting twisted thoughts into her mind .Do you have no feeling of responsibility what so ever for your evil ways?

    How sad!!!

    That victim thought she was doing the right thing by not taking a blood tranfusion, in a Caesarean birth at that. You are cut open and do bleed. I lived through two of them (not a complicated surgery to me, just making a point). It is simply a disgrace that life coming into the world has to be abandoned from its life source, the mommy. Her precious life was not worth it. It is truly not worth the b.s. reinforcement stories that will be told to the followers and new students, encouraging them to listen to counsel via a "she stayed faithful to Jehovah" guilt trip!

    Do you know what I was told when I was about to pop my daughter out via c-section? JW stepmom: "DON'T accept any blood!" I wasn't even studying then!!!!!
