Scully - "One of the things that scared the crap out of me when I was a kid growing up in a JW home, was the thought that if one of my siblings or I ever needed blood transfusions to save our lives, our parents wouldn't bat an eye and would willingly sacrifice us on the WTS's NO BLOOD altar."
Ditto.
Growing up in Canada, I was privately relieved when I found out that - essentially - if a (JW) minor need an emergency transfusion and the parents refused, more often than not, the state would override the parents' wishes.
