What should we do to make sure we receive a blood transfusion?
by ILTSF inmy partner and i both grew up jw and our parents are all still in.
we have been together for several years, but are not married.
we are wondering what we should do to make sure that in the event that one of us needed a blood transfusion and was unable to make the decision themselves, the other would be able to make the decision, rather than that responsiblity being given to our parents (who would deny a transfusion).

? Curious: How many Jehovah's Witnesses leave to join "non-christian" religions, ie; Wicca, Pagan, Satanists, Buddists, Hindu, etc. ?
by Balaamsass init may seem a strange question, but when i served as an elder i personally knew of about a dozen elders and servants children who joined various wicca groups or became buddists rather than leave to become agnostic or another "christian" denomination.. the ones who became involved with witchcraft did so in groups of jw children intregued by all the talk of satan's and the demon's power etc.
in the org.. the future buddists seemed turned off by the politics, and mean spiritness in halls.. i just thought of this after seeing the new dismal yearbook numbers and looking at facebook pages of some of the ex jws i know.. was this simply a california thing or is it worldwide?.
