But the woman refused medical. Demanded that his son was poured into an artificial blood substitute. It turned out that Ludmilla - a member of a religious movement Jehovah's Witnesses, which, according to some experts, is the sect. "Witnesses," prohibit their supporters to pour someone else's blood, even if the donor - the nearest relative.

- August 16, Vanya developed complications - told "KP" deputy director of the Institute of Emergency Children's Surgery and Traumatology Olga Karasev. - Man-made substitutes can not fully perform the functions of red blood cells. A mother of a boy still refused to accept blood transfusions. Then we turned to the prosecutor of his district.

EXPERT COMMENT
Paul Crutch, theologian, professor at the Faculty of Philosophy of Moscow State University:
- In traditional Christian denominations there is a balance between the Old and New Testaments. But the religious movement Jehovah's Witnesses focuses specifically on the Old. From there is a ban on blood transfusions. It is believed that the blood - a human soul. And any manipulation of it - under a ban. In all such cases, the Jehovah's Witnesses follow the principle: "All is God's mercy: if you want to - save you, there is not - then it should be."
The activities of Jehovah's Witnesses banned in 30 countries. In Russia the religious organization operates legally.
