  Statesman Journal, OR - 2 4 minutes ago
  "Our position on blood is basically non-negotiable," said Bradley Dean, a minister and member of the hospital liaison committee for Jehovah's Witnesses. ... Doctors take recycling to heart Device recycles patient's blood during surgery BY TIMOTHY ALEX AKIMOFF
  Statesman Journal March 9, 2007 Out of the box it looks like a small plastic bag one might fill with water on a camping trip. But for eight minutes during open-heart surgery, the deceptively simple-looking Hemobag is an instrument as vital as the surgeon's own hands. After it is filled with blood so red it looks like a candied apple, the Hemobag is hung at the top of the heart lung machine. Small tubes running to a hemo concentrator -- which acts like a kidney -- take the whole blood, run it through the filter where it loses liquids such as IV fluids, before returning it to the Hemobag in a concentrated form. It is now perfect for the patient who is about to have their chest stitched back together and sent to the Intensive Care Unit to recover. Best of all, it's the patient's own blood. "I'm not really excited about getting blood from an unknown source," said Ken Hector, of Silverton , who recently underwent quadruple bypass surgery at Salem Hospital. Hector, like 499 other people who have had heart surgery in Salem since the cardiac team started using Hemobag 2 1/2-years-ago, didn't realize what the unobtrusive little bag was doing for him. But then heart surgery patients often have a lot on their mind before surgery. "Technology is so fantastic," Hector said. "It is so great to be able to do that. Tainted blood has always been a problem, but I think they've overcome most of that. This takes any additional risks away." The benefits of Hemobag are most easily seen by surgeons and nurses in the "golden hour," that crucial period of time just after surgery. "I used to have to sit with the patient for 45 minutes or an hour after surgery until they stabilized," said Dr. William Shely a cardiothoracic surgeon at Salem Hospital. "This reduces the need for transfusion and blood exposure risks. It makes the patient more stable, easier to take care of." While several studies have attempted to prove Hemobag's ability to improve coagulation and blood conservation during the golden hour just after surgery, other long-term benefits are harder to see. "It's been hard to prove whether it's decreased the length of time a patient spends in the hospital after surgery," Shely said. Before the cardiac surgery team at Salem Hospital began using Hemobag, the best way to capture human blood during surgery was a device called a cell saver, or cell washer. The blood was collected and washed of many of the parts that can most aid in recovery. Things like platelets, essential blood proteins and clotting factors, entire elements of whole blood were washed away. "The Hemobag does in less than 10 minutes what it would take the kidneys hours to do," said Scott Beckmann, a perfusionist with the cardiovascular surgery department. In a crowded open-heart surgery, someone calls Beckmann and another perfusionist blood shepherds. And that is what they are, managing the patient's blood throughout the hours-long surgery. The perfusionists stand behind the heart lung machine monitoring screens with constantly changing numbers. During the 8-minute Hemobag procedure they move like martial artists, deftly moving between tubes of crimson blood, massaging the Hemobag to achieve a well-mixed concentrated blood to give back to the patient. An average of one liter of concentrated blood is usually given back to a patient, according to Beckmann. Three times that amount are usually given when it comes to using other blood. The cardiac surgery team at Salem Hospital is the only one using Hemobag in the Northwest. And the sheer number of surgeries performed using Hemobag make the team a nationally recognized leader in using the technology, according to a spokesman for Global Blood Resources LLC, the company that manufactures Hemobag. Despite the new technology and it's effect on heart-surgery patients, there is still a tremendous need for blood donations. Aside from significantly improving recovery times for heart-surgery patients, Hemobag may have an even bigger impact on an entire community. " Our position on blood is basically non-negotiable," said Bradley Dean, a minister and member of the hospital liaison committee for Jehovah's Witnesses. "The Bible says no eating of blood." And taking blood products is analogous to eating blood, Dean said. Jehovah's Witnesses also do not take their own blood if it has been out of the body for a long time. The principle comes from the Bible, where it is stated that shed blood should only be poured on the ground. Surgical procedures for Jehovah's Witnesses can involve a complicated process whereby they must travel to medical centers that perform surgeries without using bloodbank blood or pre-donated blood. The Hemobag offers a solution that may appeal to Jehovah's Witnesses, though Dean said it is an intensely personal decision for the individual. "Basically the Bible does not comment on the machines," Dean said. "We have a theological description of blood that governs the use of any machine or technology." Dean said many conversations have taken place between the liaison committee for Jehovah's Witnesses and physicians at Salem Hospital about Hemobag. "But I'm not aware of any Jehovah's Witnesses who have had a surgery utilizing the Hemobag yet," Dean said. For 500 people who have had their chests opened up, their breathing and heart functions run by a machine at Salem Hospital, physicians say Hemobag has given them a better chance at recovery simply because they get their own blood. "When you're not using blood from another source it allows the body more time to repair itself," Beckmann said. "When you give your own blood back there is no inflammatory response, and that benefits a person for a lifetime." [email protected] or (503) 399-6750

  ok, so this is purely speculative, but with the dwindling numbers in the org do you think the wts may actually start encouraging the r&f to have children?

  as counterintuitive as it may seem with the constant impending armageddon agenda, i know of many died-in-the-wool company men (and women) who would swallow whatever spin the society feeds them to keep the numbers up.

  farfetched perhaps, but what else can they do?.

  Read his story in the Maine Times

  A: My parents were Jehovah's Witness missionaries, and when I was born (1957) they were reviled for having a baby because the end of the world was coming any day; the preaching work has to get priority. My father married my mother after he met her family when he was going door-to-door. She was 17, he was 27. She was worse than legally blind. They married and it was hell. He was a rotten husband.

  Actually, the "Responsible Child-bearing in the Time of the End" talk was given in the 1987 "Trust in Jehovah" district convention (in the afternoon of day #2) and was published in the 1 March 1988 Watchtower (pp. 23-27).

  That is the big talk that stands out in my mind too.

  Thanks for the clarification but I could almost swear that the 1990 was the one on Noah's family no kids building ark maybe a ditto?

  A payout of £124,000 could be awarded to a sales assistant after an employment tribunal ruled that she was unfairly dismissed by the retail group Next following homophobic harassment, This is London reports.
  
  The Merseyside tribunal heard that Marlene Bielak was called a "f***ing dyke" by former colleague Katrina Davies, 27, who also played a song called All The Lazy Dykes by Morrisey every time Ms Bielak went into the stockroom of the shop.
  
  The disagreement between the two women came to head in December 2004 when Ms Bielak dropped a crate of merchandise on the floor near Ms Davies - a practising Jehovah's Witness - who reacted with a violent outburst.
  
  Ms Bielak commented: "It is not about the money, it is about getting justice, not only for me but for all those other people who are being discriminated against because of their sexuality.
  "This woman was allowed to physically push me, she shouted and swore at me, called me a "f***ing dyke" in front of other colleagues and harassed and bullied me because of her religious beliefs.
  
  "She shouldn't have been allowed to get away with it and Next shouldn't employ people who force their prejudices on others."
  
  The decision pertaining to the compensation will be made in July 2007.

  The watchtower 1990 convention ordered the rank & file NOT to have children as the 'great tribulation' is at hand.Remember if you were there,the theme of the 'have no kids double up on birth control' talk was the comparison of Noah's family ark building and having stayed childless, not encumbered by 'little ones' who would get in the way of building today's 'spiritual ark.This talk was reinforced by a primary WT study article that fall on same and encouraging singleness. The Watchtower said no kids in 1925 and their leader Joe Rutherford admitted to having made an "ass of himself" that time.So ,the WT would never make the same mistake again?So this time the end must be close. Fallout-how many woman close to menopause,longing to fulfill their maternal instincts lost forever the opportunity to have a baby? Damned if you do/damned if you don't.Jehovah's Witnesses are the'perfect storm' of deception-in a word they are the cult of Innuendo-Danny Haszard Bangor Maine

  I was THERE 11 years of age Montreal Canada in 1967 sitting outside on the grass getting bitten by a few ants when a hush came over the crowd as the speaker elaborated on the 1975 date as the 'possibility' of it being 6000 years post Adam's creation in the year 4026 BC and consequently the start date of Christ 1000 year rein. The date came with it's (red) book release sold by the tens of millions. 99% of ALL Jehovah's Witnesses from that moment foreward lived & died for 1975. It was like Paul Revere's ride to the American revolution.
  Anyone who denies it is a liar just like the holocaust deniers of today. The shot heard around the watchtower world was 1975 "Staying Alive Until 1975" My Story of Growing Up JW with Severe Ulcerative Colitis The end Armageddon was expected to come on or about the month of October 1975 as the watchtower prophets say big Bible events occur in October. 99% of Jehovah's Witnesses worldwide were holding their breath.When nothing happened the Watchtower urban legend rumor mill damage control went into high output and spun an addendum on "how long did it take for Adam to name the animals"?? For several years later we had to endure flak and eat crow door to door because EVERYBODY KNEW ABOUT 1975. The first assembly after the 'big' event the speaker (from Bethel no less) gets up to speak and bellows out jokingly; "ARMAGEDDON AIN'T A COMING SO I'M A GETTING OUTTA HERE" that relieved the tension that had built up.

  ..... In the hands of Elijah Muhammad, the birthday of Fard became "Saviors Day". The somewhat flaky ideologies of Fard Muhammad became more outlandish. Fard had urged his followers to listen to broadcasts of Joseph Rutherford, president of the Jehovah's Witnesses, who claimed that the end of the "civilized" world had commenced in 1914. The notion of impending Armageddon had been preached by Fard, who had formerly claimed that if his followers ate certain foods and employed their time usefully, the world would be rid of evil by 1934.
