  blood fractions not allowed

  by pippy in

  i just spoke to a friend who was a witness years ago when we were kids and she told me an interesting thing.

  when she went to the hospital to discuss things due to her being pregnant and going to have a baby at this hospital , they told her that the brisbane and gold coast hospitals were no longer going to offer jw's blood fractions.

  they are sick and tired of all the unclear sayings and that ppl dont even know what they will accept or not , and they are having so many problems that they have a new form to be filled out.

  Over here all blood is fractioned for transfusion anyway, something which the HLC et al seem unable to grasp. I also know of a local consultant haematologist who also became so exasparated by the whole JW blood issue that she phoned their HQ in London for an explanation of how their policy worked. They were clueless and totally unable to explain it to her.

  At our local hospital a few years ago a JW woman haemmorhaged in childbirth after refusing a transfusion. Her non JW husband was left without a wife and the baby without a mother. All down to the confused policy and the "assistance" of the HLC. As a consequence, they're not very popular.

  anyone writing about Dave Madzay obviously never new him!!!!!!!!!!!!

  i am writing because i am tired of people talking about rumours that they heard about dave madzay,he was the kindest , most intelligent man i ever new, yes he was df but only jehovah can judge him for things he did, no one else.he was an elder very high up in bethel who gave the most wonderful talks, helped many people,brought a lot of people into the truth and yet when he died not one jw attended his funeral.

  how sad that a man who was so high up in bethel could be treated like this...........i was brought up in the truth until i was 15 , and turned away because of how dave was treated, even though dave had jehovah in his heart right up until his last breath and did everything he could do to be reinstated but sadly never was.........................i know i knew him

  Do you really want to save us?

  this is for the christians.. let's put our swords away.. try to convince those of us that have lost our faith to accept jesus christ and all that that acceptance entails.. pretend that our lives( eternal) depend on it.. that's what you believe isn't it?.

  this is an opportunity to win souls for christ.. yes.

  things may get heated.

  Hi Terry

  Sounds like some subliminal fight or flight issue. Hope you get the necessary help and direction as soon as possible.

  You take care of yourself and don't get too anxious.

  I was 14 years old and clueless.

  For the WBTS Inc. that sounds like an ideal candidate. Welcome to the board Pixie!
