Callous off-hand post

On the matter of this young new mother who has died after refusing a blood transfusion that, in the view of the medical profession would have preserved her life and even enabled her to recover her full health there clearly many potential approaches to take.

Generally the tone of reaction has been outrage. Fellow Jehovas Witnesses aside almost everyone with an opinion has taken the view that this young mother was either deluded or grotesquely selfish (or both).

JWs interpret passages in the bible that warn against consuming blood (or imbibing or partaking or ...) as effectively not just precluding being a practicing vampire but also making it impossible to receive a blood transfusion when required for pressing medical reasons.

A young woman leaving behind a widower and new-born twins is being portrayed as the tragic denoument to a misguided life. Yup, and that's one less god-botherer too. Perhaps her husband will reconsider his beliefs before they're inflicted on the unsuspecting babies.
