I discussed the options cited on the AMD with my very strict jw friend before surgery about 10 years ago. She was adamant that it was OK to take certain factions and tried to encourage me to do the same.
I ticked 'accept nothing' with the reasoning that if I would refuse to donate to the cause on religious grounds, it would be wrong to accept blood - even in fraction form.
Silly me.
-Aude.
PS: Fortunately, mostly because of my refusal to accept blood, my surgeon and I discussed various surgical approaches and no blood was needed.
