  Mary,

  Good on you kiddo as we say around here .I hope you win the war on ignorance and that your Dad pulls through.

  My sister was diabetic from the age of three and her life saver, on several occasions, all through her life were blood transfusions.

  When I was a witless and my sister never was I remember thinking many times that there was no way I was going to let my sister die if the decision was mine.I remember thinking to myself when I was in the cult maybe I would refuse blood but I could not allow someone else to die because of it.So I guess I had my doubts all the time in the back of my mind.

  Anyway get some rest you will need all your strength in order to think straight and send that blood committee back to the dark ages where they belong.

  He is lucky that you happened to be there at the right time otherwise had it been up to the dubs to deal with it he would be dead by now.
  
  I wonder why the dubs can't see the absurdity of this doctrine: allowing blood fractions but not all of them together, what difference would it make they still use the bloood from a volunteer.
  
  Our friend Hurleau doesn't seem to realise that the meaning of abstaining from blood as being equivalent to abstaining from transfusions is nothing but the interpretation of men who on numerous occasions got things very wrong and later admitted it. Certainly not the people to be trusted with advice on issues of life and death.
