    Or are you required to be in "good standing" to get a new blood card?

    Are they required to be updated every year to be legally valid?

    Good question,

    seems to me that a DF person should be able to get a No Blood card if they want one,

    I would be interested in knowing if someone DF requested one and was denied and for what reason.

    The answer is no. When you're told by the committee you're DFd they ask you to turn your card in.

    You will not be given a medical directive. But then your old one is good as long as you don't move to a new state, a health care medical proxy that is. They no longer use a "card." As min said, you could do your own. Actually, every person should have a medical proxy on file whether they are a jw or not. Medical treatments are more than blood transfusions.

    As above, I can confirm that you're asked to turn your card in. I've got it on digital recording, in fact I've got about 8 hours of pre-judicial/judicial/appeal committee process that will be released as a podcast series in the near future on Freeminds.org.

    passwordprotected,

    I did not know that,

    I wonder if that info is in a KM somewhere.

    I wonder if that is standard protocol or if that JC group were just being uber zealous...
