    JW's will not take a blood transfusion but will have organ transplants. Don't they know that the organs are full of blood.

    There was a JW kid in SA that needed a liver and the parents did everything in their power to get money together for him to go to UK for a bloodless op. They organised all sorts of charity events and lots of JWs gave money for this boy to go get the op done in UK. The op could have been done here with blood but none of the South African doctors would do the op without blood. The dad was even interviewed on TV because of this.

    What a waste of money!! Go to UK have a "bloodless" op done and receive an organ that is full of someone elses blood anyway.

    It is sad to see how the R & F follow what is said to be acceptable practice and what not by the Governing Body!

    Before 1980 organ transplants were viewed as cannibalistic.The doctine changed in that year. My question and logic.What about all those who died refusing an organ transplant because the borg said it was against God's law? The same applies to blood.Now certain blood fractions are allowed.

    I am just concentrating on the logic here.Why is it so hard for JWs to see this?

    Spoke to my MIL about that last week. She told me about the new blood card. I asked her where in the bible does it say that a little bit of blood is ok but a lot is not???? She just answered that it was a LOVING provision from the GB.

    The organ may not be full of blood as it is washed out. However, blood does remain.

    Please see the following URL for links to actual scientific articles in case a JW who is starting to take off the glasses needs to see some proof that transplanted organs such as liver do contain red blood cells .
