HOWEVER, note that the hospital and another doctor had chickened out and paid $$$ settlements $$$ to the JWs:
JWs Lose Malpractice Lawsuit: Death Due To NoBlood

The article states:
>>>"I never thought he was negligent," said Morris' attorney Raphael Martinez. "I feel he is an excellent doctor and performed within the standard of care."Robert Burger, who represents the Rampino family, disagreed.
"We are disappointed that the jury didn't hold Morris to a higher standard of care," he said. "But the family is happy they brought it all the way to the end.<<<
Why do JWs believe they are deserving of a "higher standard of care"??
What does the average JW know about invasive cardiac surgery that they can dictate what the standard of care should or should not be??
What does the average jury member know about invasive cardiac surgery that they can dictate what the standard of care should or should not be??
This is just ridiculous.
Love, Scully

Look!
'Make sure of ALL things'. 'In due time', ALL WILL BE REVEALED.
We are all here, 'digging' for that 'Nugget' in the 'mine'. No one's 'shovel' is to be minimized. Each WILL DIG, no matter how little or how much one's 'tool' is capable. This is NOT a competition. Let's work together to 'dig' to the Watchtower's Kore. THIS 'GEM' IS A HUGE 'FIND' IN THIS 'EXCAVATION'. Let's keep digging! And posting our REWARDS!

Their hope was to affect the way medicine is practiced
Maybe jws should send their children to university instead of accusing people and waiting on others to become 'jehovah' and deliver medical knowledge.

Question: Which damages the WTS more, those who misrepresent facts, or those who, siding with the WTS, behave like trash.

"It was just a very sad situation," Martinez said. "You have to respect other people's faith and wishes but, then again, also accept the consequences."
This is what the family failed to do. JW's insist on making the physician's job even more difficult than it already is (especially with so much heart tissue previously damaged), and then they get upset when their blood stance causes complications and death that were needless.
Note, too, that this JW-blood-policy-victim had a heart complaint for SEVEN YEARS before surgery was performed. Why the delay? Could it have been the fear of having bloodless heart surgery as required by her religion?
Too pitiful all the way around!
