What do you think would happen if I told an Elder or CO "Listen, I just thought you should know that I have no intention of heeding ANY direction from the FDS regarding medical procedures"?

I keep having seeing this scenario in my mind and it goes like this:
I refuse a plasma transfusion for a loved one and they die soon therafter.
At judgement day, God is deciding whether I am worthy to enter the kingdom. He says I have lived by his will to a good degree, however, I chose to let a loved one die instead of choosing a plasma transfusion.
I say "Yes, God. I refused one because of the spiritual direction that I received from the faithful & discreet slave, that you appointed. The scriptual argument for refusing blood transfusions convinced me to do so."
He says "Let me get this right. You prayed for many nights for me to direct your life and your beliefs. Then, you felt the need to start viewing material that showed the WTBTS had previously taught that serums, hemodilution, albumin, organ transplant, etc. were also unscriptual. Instead of thinking, "Hey, is it a good idea to follow scriptural interpretation of the WTBTS when it effects medical decisions?", you allowed a loved one to die by following their interpretation of blood transfusions. Did I not bestow reasoning ability and the power of logic on your life?
I say Yes, God. But I figured that......
He says "Well, I guess you figured wrong. No everlasting life for you, since you saw a pattern of error and yet still decided to follow that pattern of interpretation. You were wreckless with the gift of life.

What does Genesis 9:4 truly mean, in your opinion?
Some say it means do not eat blood.
Some say it means do not eat an animal that is alive.
Are there any scholars that argue that it means 'do not eat blood"?

@leolaia:
You said:
"Jahveh" might be the expected form had the name been romanized the same way as other Hebrew names into English.
Is this supported by any scholars?
Thanks

Found this at wikipedia:
The Hebrew scholar Wilhelm Gesenius [1786–1842] had suggested that the Hebrew punctuation ??????? , which is transliterated into English as "Yahweh", might more accurately represent the actual pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton than the Biblical Hebrew punctuation " ??????? ", from which the English name Jehovah has been derived.
Is Jehovah the most accurate translation of Yahweh into English???

5 After the Flood, mankind started anew with just eight souls. In a declaration applying to all humans, God revealed more about his evaluation of life and blood. He said that humans could eat animal flesh, but he set this restriction: “Every moving animal that is alive may serve as food for you. As in the case of green vegetation, I do give it all to you. Only flesh with its soul—its blood—you must not eat.” (Genesis 9:3, 4) Some Jews interpret that to mean that humans were not to eat flesh or blood of an animal that was still alive. But time would clearly show that what God was here prohibiting was the consuming of blood to sustain life. Moreover, God’s decree through Noah was a major step forward in working out His elevated purpose involving blood—a purpose that would allow humans to gain everlasting life.
Is this article trying to prove that Genesis 9:4 is NOT speaking of eating an animal still alive by jumping ahead to the Mosaic law?

Thanks everyone. However, I am still confused.
Yahweh is Hebrew, right?
If so, what would Yahweh be if it were translated into English?

"All reasonable minds must conclude that it was not the eating of the blood that God objected to, but it was bringing the blood of the beast in contact with the blood of man." Golden Age 1931 Feb 4 p.294
The entire year on PDF would be great!
