She will be putting me in touch with the Dad who needs our help bigtime.

p.s. - father knows about ajwrb.org but doesn't know much else. He just stumbled over ajwrb and was shocked.

Carol says he does know much else.

Daughter is definitely closed minded

Hawkaw,
Please let us know when and if you find the man's address or email. I would love to send him support.

Thank you!!

Hawk,
I didn't get anything yet?
By the way, there was not a single letter to the editor about that poor Dad's plight. The Journal's policy required each letter published with a full name, and that would scare off most people.

Jehovah's Witness praises hospital staff

Calgary Herald

Tuesday, March 12, 2002

The father of a Jehovah's Witness girl suffering from leukemia praised doctors for improving her condition through treatment that includes blood transfusions forbidden by their faith.

The 16-year-old girl and her mother are trying to have the transfusions stopped, but her father, who is also a Jehovah's Witness, believes they are necessary to keep her alive.

"The treatment is working," the 51-year-old father said Monday. "Words can't describe my appreciation to the staff at Alberta Children's Hospital."

The teen has been undergoing chemotherapy since last month and the province gained temporary custody of her after she and her family refused to allow blood transfusions.

The father changed his mind after rereading Bible scriptures.

"There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that my daughter was on the verge of death . . . and that without this treatment she would have died a long time ago," he said in a written statement.

Blood transfusions are considered necessary because leukemia depletes red blood cells, which carry needed oxygen to the body's vital organs.
