If your reseaching about blood and JW's you need go to: www.ajwrb.org the information there will help you think beyond what you have been raised to think.

Welcome Nicholas
Welcome Nich,hope you come back to post your findings.
I thank you all for shortly replying to my question, especially connecting me to that particular link. I'd like to say that I'm not a JW, but because I was told your form of Christianity has specific information in regards to transfusions and our blood I thought it would be a wonderful opportunity to narrow down my search for that elusive scripture I was speaking of earlier.
As for my own findings, and I'm sure this isn't anything new, as scriptures have been around for quite some time, I've taken note of particular offering statements in regards to blood... how, for example, in the OT is was by "blood" that a "priest" would offer blood sacrifices, either for our a burnt offering or a sin offering(Leviticus 15:15); however as I'm sure you're aware of that in accordance to Hebrews 9 we have received the one-time offering of the blood of Christ as that offering forever more, so long as we're abundantly connected through repentance and the Holy Ghost... (Hebrews 10:15-18).

The best essay I have read on blood in scriptures, is contained in the best book I have read: In Search of Christian Freedom by Raymond Franz (former JW leader)
