  does anyone know the wt's position on medical treatment using stem cells?

  i don't even know how to go about finding out this information.

  if anyone could tell me where to look or what the current position is by the society, i am most appreciative.. i would like to recommend the treatment to a jw relative, but don't want to get involved in an argument if it is forbidden.

  Thank you OrphanCrow!

  I can see that within the system this treatment can be used when certain criteria are met. That is really good to know.

  Thank you so much again!

  Hello all,

  Does anyone know the WT's position on medical treatment using stem cells? I don't even know how to go about finding out this information. If anyone could tell me where to look or what the current position is by the society, I am most appreciative.

  I would like to recommend the treatment to a JW relative, but don't want to get involved in an argument if it is forbidden. I believe the stem cells come from clinics, (could be an issue), and are mixed with blood drawn from the body and infused back into the body, also could be an issue.

  So many rules I couldn't care less about, but if it is conscience matter, I would like to at least tell them about it.

  TIA for any help.

  MY BEST FRIEND

  he walked right past me, looking straight ahead.. years before, hal and i walked the same path, the best of pals.

  laughing and joking while endeavoring to maintain some level of decorum during our serious work of being a theatrical spectacle to men and angels.

  although we hadn't seen each other in years, hal must have gotten word .

  Ok Coco, you have me in tears.

  Recent occurrences have left me sad, annoyed, frustrated, angry... I wish sometimes I could be more unfeeling like these JW's I know. But that's wrong...having feelings is what led me out of that cult, thankfully.

  I watched about half of it yesterday while here at work. I am amazed at how many boxes this guy checked in my head, the familiar scriptures used in his rhetoric. So so familiar.
