  Throw Out Your Blood Cards!

  ex-jehovah's witness bled to death after surgery .

  in 2006, riddell signed a declaration that she did not want to be given blood during any medical procedure because of her jehovah's witness beliefs, even if healthcare providers believed that it was necessary to preserve her life.. she later stopped practising the religion but her brother told hill she maintained the declaration because she had researched the use of blood transfusions and made an informed decision not to receive any blood.. riddell opted for the surgery after being diagnosed with symptomatic gallstones, hill said.. parry met with riddell before the surgery but did not discuss receiving blood with her as he told hill the chances of someone bleeding during the surgery were less than one per cent.. that meant the surgery began at wairau hospital at 9am without parry knowing about the declaration, although his anaesthetist did.. it was originally supposed to be a keyhole only surgery, but parry made the decision to go to an open surgery as he could not access the gall bladder through the keyhole technique.. during the surgery there was a small amount of bleeding, which parry was unconcerned about.. the surgery finished at 11.15am and parry went away to perform another surgery.

  during that time, riddell's blood pressure dropped and fluids increased.. the anaesthetist visited parry during his surgery and told him "we have a problem, she's bleeding.

  Niveau, yes the secretary or whomever is at the desk takes the card and puts it on the copier machine and copies it. Absolutely. And they write it down that client is one of Jehovah's Witnesses and does not want a blood transfusion, or whatever words you used as they write it down word for word. I'm glad the health professionals that know you are aware of your change of mind, but to cover their own selves, they go by the written document.

  Separation of Powers, you are right. All those fractions practically add up to a whole so I don't even know what the problem is now. As you said its so muddled that it does confuse people. But Jehovah still seems to be getting his blood sacrifices.

  Niveau, you have to do more than burn it. If you have ever told a health care advisor or anyone about your stance, say at a hospital or medical clinic, they photocopy the card, and it will stand. What you need to do is go to those facilities and tell them in person, (you can't send your husband, for instance), that you recind this card and sign whatever document they want you to sign. Much success to you.

  WT asking people to sell and uproot life to help w/ temporary building projects...

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  check out the new jan 2015 study wt, article, they offer themselves willingly.

  they give examples of young and middle age brothers and sisters who are selling their dream homes, uprooting their lives, etc, to move to help w/ building branches, etc, and how they know it's only temporary but not worried about what happens when they send them home.

  they then say will you put jah to the test and see if he won't open the flood gates of blessings for you.

  That's too bad that those people are doing that. Old age, and/or sickness or bad health is going to slip up on them and they're going to have nothing. They'll be wards of the state, and that's not enough money to get by. But then, that's how they'll think Jehovah is providing.

  The 1995 Ebola Zaire outbreak was started by a JW

  by ILoveTTATT in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the dead man is gaspard menga, a jehovah's witness who was the first person to contract ebola in 1995. the people around him, are his family.

  within a month, most of the ones on this picture were dead from ebola.

  it was because of gaspard that we now know that african burial rites are a mayor cause in spreading ebola.

  Thanks for this post. I remember reading about this years ago, it must have been around 1995, and it must have been in one of the magazines as I had no time to read other things. Just take your fresh garlic however you can get it down, use your own pen, wipe off your keyboard and steering wheel with wet wipes often. Those are just a few of the precautions.

  And that picture of the "great crowd" calmly walking away from a great tragedy behind them with no compassion for the death and destruction of people. What kind of people are they anyway? I'll tell you what kind. The kind that don't need to be in a "paradise earth". Of course it's fictional too. It's all a fraud, I think.

  Of course they're lying, but who is going to call them on it. And reading all this, (I normally would not), but since I have so much respect for the Anderson's I did read it all and kept thinking, my gawd, I used to really believe all this pipe dream too. The trouble is, when things start happening in the real world, like the dollar collapse or something of that nature, and witnesses find out out that they've been fooled and misled, it won't matter to the big dogs because the small fry won't be able to do a blame thing about it.
