I'm a Jehovah's Witness, and nowadays they have different ways instead of blood transfusion, and we also have cards that say we can't take blood.
what do you mean different ways of blood transfusion? there is no substitute for blood when in critical condition
Yeah those other ways takes longer than just blood transfusion and time is key for emergency situations. esas aren't nearly as quick
@@Aki-47. what is ESO?
@@rainygray249 no wait I missspelled but it's esas (erythropoiesis stimulating agents)

My grandma refused to talk to my mom for getting me a blood transfusion at birth. I was a premmie and barely had any blood. Also was a twin and my sister died. So my mom decided to save me over religion and left the church.
Thank God for that
Your grandma has a one way ticket to the down under
@@dja3456 that's not even the worst thing she has ever did
@@fala-zt9ep honestly, W
@@fala-zt9epnow I'm curious. She managed to to worse than expect you to die? Geez, I'm sorry about what you went through
My aunt is Catholic and her husband was a Jehovah’s Witness. She needed a blood transfusion after the birth of my cousin and her husband refused to permit it. So my Catholic grandfather, who had a 30 year career as a sergeant in the US army and survived 2 tours in Vietnam, dragged her husband out of the hospital and proceeded to beat the daylight out of him. My grandfather told her husband that he could grant the permission or he’d knock every tooth out of his mouth and break his face in. Her husband gave permission, police were called and gave my grandfather a warning, and my aunt survived. This was in Puerto Rico in the 90s. On his deathbed, my grandfather told his son that he gave his daughters everything except good sense (my aunt refused to divorce her husband who has since converted to Catholicism), and asked him to keep protecting the girls once he’s gone. My grandfather passed away 2 years ago.
Best grandpa ever
Your grandpa is the best fr
grandpa a great man
That's one badahh grandpa . L to the aunt though.
W grandpa
My mother abandoned us at the hospital and chose a pedophile over her own children. She was given a choice by the social worker and that's what she chose. Now, my sister is missing, brother is dead, and my other sister is struggling. She is still with this man till this day. So yes, I can't forgive her for that.
I am so sorry. Some people should never be allowed to procreate, but I'm glad you're here.
😢
Religions lecture us a lot about forgiveness, but some things should never be forgiven.
I’m so sorry :(
I'm so sorry. This is heartbreaking to say the least. I can never understand women who choose a man over their own children.
They keep coming to my door trying to convert me, and I said 'My mom worked in blood bank for thirty years, you are wasting your time'. They tried to sell me on the 'alternative options'. LOL, like there's an alternative when you're bleeding out. If you need blood, you need blood. Huffing lavender oil isn't going to change that.
Lmao I burst out laughing after reading the last sentence
@@Boldandbeautifuldarkandlovelyyeah it is in a way but it saves peoples lives
Stop making fun of a religion
Please continue making fun of this ridiculous concept
@@user-ir7qq6wc5vthis isn't making fun of a religion. It's a fact that plenty of kids die unnecessarily because of their refusal to have anyone get blood. Since kids are reliant of their parents approval, they just die. If you're a parent with some sense and get your kid that blood transfusion they need to live, you get shunned. Your husband/wife, mom, dad, sister, brother, etc. They will force you out of their home including your kid because they're now tainted.
If you're an adult who died because of your religious beliefs, you chose to die. Those kids are innocent and are being left to die.
One of the reasons why I left that cult. I was 13 dying from cancer and was told if I don’t get the transfusion I will die before the week is up. My mom refused the blood and said it was okay because jehovah will take care of you and you’ll be resurrected one day. The hospital took us to court because they didn’t want me to die and my mom hated them for it and thought when I got the blood the donor blood would change my DNA and that was her reason to why I was “crazy for leaving jehovah” not the almost killing me or abuse they bestow on you from a child.
A blood transfusion doesn't change your dna blood doesn't work that way. Also that hospital was right for doing that glad your here with us today.
That’s wild!
I grew up JW and this was my all time fear. I knew if I got Leukemia or something requiring a blood transfusion before the age of 18 my parents would have willingly let me die I breathed a sigh of a relief becoming an adult and leaving that shit show of a situation. My parents have nothing to do with me now.
I’m so glad that hospital was there for you! Hope you’re doing well now!
Lol, I needed a blood transfusion when I was born cause my mother's white blood cells where atacking me. I guess under your mom's logic, Im not my parents daugther(?
Imagine being part of the medical staff that day, seeing a patient die as her daughter is screaming to save her life in the next room.

Facts
I wonder if there's an episode about this
My adopted older brother left that religion in part due to the blood transfusion issue as a young man. My family has been Baptist and he asked my Dad why he didn't try to convert him and my Dad told him "God brought me to you, and you found your way to Him". He also stated he would do everything possible to save the lives of those he loved and held dear. That the God he believes in would want us to live and not die for something that could be prevented. I do wonder if that religion would permit you to have your own blood drawn and stored before any major surgery or if you are compatible with a direct family member if they could donate to the other in need.
my understanding is that JWs cannot take blood that has been taken from the body in any way. So no, autologous and directed units would not be options for them either, since it is not a safety matter but a religious matter. For a major surgery, they tend to sign up for "bloodless surgery" to minimize blood loss.
I know some who do allow to be given their own blood ....but any other persons blood is a no go ...relative or not
@@카일마진 why tho...there's literally no harm in that and it can save lives so why isn't it allowed?
@@thephoenix2309it's based off misinterpretation of a scripture in the old testament that says that believers shouldn't ingest blood from any source. The scripture was referring to blood from sacrificed animals. You were supposed to drain the blood and cook all the fat off the meat as an offering to God. Then the priests would eat the rest of the offering.
blood only stores for 30 days. No hospital banks blood for individuals before elective surgery.
I was in the hospital as a baby for getting a surgery on my head and the person next to me who was around maybe 12-14? Was a Jehovah’s Witness along with her family who was obviously with her. Well it turns out she needed a blood transfusion but her parents absolutely refused, the doctors tried to talk to them and convince them or else their daughter would die. Unfortunately they still refused to save their daughter. My father who was in the room with my mom loudly told me mom that basically its stupid choosing your religion instead of saving your own daughter’s life. They got so mad and upset that they requested to move to a different room. Their daughter passed away.
that’s actually so horrible. I couldn’t imagine watching my parents choose their religion over my life.
That's horrible
That’s absolutely selfish to ignore the religion when it came to alcohol and addiction but to not ignore it when it came to the life of his wife AND kids cause losing momma would literally crush any kids that she have!!
Alcohol is allowed in JW
@@samkon3148really?!
@@samkon3148 Yeah in moderation. You shouldnt be getting drunk or to the point of alcholism and addiction. The dad could have also turned to more positive ways for comfort and seekhelp instead of having his family fall apart even further.
@@jessicaadams4033fr, that was a crazy twist. he refused that due to his beliefs just to leave the religion.
it's kinda funny, reminds me ever so slightly of my mothers case.
her father had brought her mother into the religion. they ended up both being narcissists and abusive, still mostly living by Jehovah's standards.
he was disfellowshipped multiple times to my knowledge, and thankfully at some point her mom got out of there (taking my mom and aunt with her of course) i've never met my grandfather, and he's never gone back. i'm glad he's not in my life, hearing what he's done to my mother.
my grandmother is somewhat in my life, i've met her before, and she's a lot better than she was in the past, but with my mom, there's still some tendencies that trigger her, so we don't talk to her much, which is fine with me, i do understand my mom's worries.
@@samkon3148See these religions are straight up ridiculous oml
Almost happened to my friend after an awful car crash, his dad (wasn’t a jehovah and lived halfway across the country, barely ever spoke to him) had to approve the transfusion bc his mom was jehovah. He finally got a payout from the case (good amount of money) recently and his mom now feels entitled to it and keeps asking him to pay bills for her. He literally wouldn’t be here if she had the final say in his health back then
I hope he isn’t giving her a dime!!
@@bazwaz6297 zilch! He’s just been laughing about it. He’s getting married this year and buying a house, the money is going to good use for him and his fiancé!
I am literally gonna ask my family to give me the right to make medical decision on their behalf legally, they are not jehovah's withness (thank god) but they panic in critical situations especially medical emergencies and I would rather take the burden of making a wrong decision if it comes to that rather than my mom or dad.
I hope he told the mother " Oh sorry Mam 😬😬😬 it's blood money." And walk away.
He's alive. That wouldn't be blood money. Also, hopefully he helps his dad.
Losing a significant other over something you can't even prove exist is something beyond delulu
Although I don’t identify as a Jehovah’s Witness, the fact that people die proves that there is a higher power in control.
@@user-yc4qb9pd3d79Umm. No that just proves that people die.
@@babyfaceweeb8937 and the fact that we die proves that we aren’t in control after all . If we were in complete control, we would be able to prevent people from dying, but it’s inevitable since there is obviously a higher power that enforces the rules that human life must abide by.
No way man’s took religion over his wife just to leave the religion
Sad to say but a lot of people choose God over their own kids.
@@kaylabrownell1268 the sad part is he chose to leave the religion and stray away from his beliefs after making a poor decision for that religion
The tragedy is: the „not eating blood“ part is from Judaism. And in Judaism blood transfusions are allowed. Jehovas Witnesses don’t seem to understand that in Judaism and in Christianity saving lives is more important than sticking to rules.
its probably some sort of rebellion/trauma response,
Happens a lot.
A whole bunch of people only realise how much religion is hurting them after they see consequences of it. Consequences like losing a spouse, the kids cutting contact etc.
Why hospitals need permission for saving people's lives it's the dumbest thing I ever heard. Sorry for the mom and children.
cause people have freedom .... nobody can force anybody to do something unless that person is unconscious or mentally not there
In my country doctor allow to save you no matter what.
@@카일마진nobody have freedom. We always under some rules with fault sense of freedom
Right like if I brought myself to the hospital, then had to go in surgery they will have to ask a family member that Im upset with probably🤣🤣🤣fawkkkkk that
@@카일마진that’s what DNRs and established medical documents are for. Without those they should be able to save you. What if you don’t have someone to speak for you and you are critical? Then what?
This is like that tale of a guy during some disaster refusing all forms of help that come his way because he trusts in God to save him so he stays put and continues to pray. Well when the guy eventually dies and gets to speak with God in heaven, he asks why God didn’t save him, and God’s just like, “I literally sent so many people to aid you. What else do you want from me?”
Blind faith is one thing, but if you can’t even recognize when God is answering you, then what’s the whole point?
Yea, that’s kinda like that religion that dances with snakes, trusting in God that they won’t get bit and if they do it’s “God’s will”. News flash, God gave us free will to make our own decisions.
So according to their religion a blood transfusion is a sin but not caring for two homeless children isn't? Make it make sense. Oh it doesn't!!
Shunning is a very large and accepting part of jehivas witness. If you are "too worldly?" Out in the cold. You say you want to not be a JW? out in the cold. You want higher education? Especially if you are a WOMAN? Etc etc etc
@@bluedragon8762don't forget how they isolate you from everyone who isn't JW, so if you do leave the church you have no one.
They are not christ like at all but still think they deserve to be in heaven, it's gonna be like a Stanzi skit where a karen/kevin argue with the devil about why they are in hell and not in heaven.
Coz they don't care as long as they follow their church teachings.
No ( I am a Jehovah's witness) it's wasn't ok for him to do the and God may forgive but that's because he forgives all
All of you witnesses saying there are other options, there isn't. This is a critical moment, and blood is crucial. You can try supplements, but if you're losing too much blood, too quick, and your body isn't making enough to catch up, then this is the only way. I tried taking iron for 2 days through IV, but I was going to go into cardic arrest because of the lack of blood and continuation of bleeding.
You can get man made blood . Why didn’t iron IV help you? I had 2 blood iron transfusions that saved me from having a heart attack as I was extremely low in iron .
@cherrymetha3185 because my hemoglobin was at 3, and I was still bleeding vaginally profusely. It takes time for your body to make blood. They can give you synthetics, but if they can't stop the bleeding and you get too low, putting some gas in the tank is better than nothing. I bled the first blood transfusion out, but it kept me able to get the bleeding to stop. This was just a period btw, turns out I have a blood disorder.
There are other options you probably just don't know about
@@user-ir7qq6wc5vEnlighten us then. Oh, you're just bluffing. Lying is also against religion, is it not?
@@user-ir7qq6wc5vyea like what, options to die? Because of an outdated redundant religious belief. Nah man. Open your eyes and mind.
If I were a doctor in this situation... Man, I would have already lost my license. Plain and simple. I would never let something like this slide. Never.
How could you choose religion over your family. Like I get religion is important to people but if your religion was against saving your moms life, wouldn’t you still do it?
I’m pretty sure there’s other options to save her since they can’t take blood transfusions
Idk because religion is kinda weird in itself. Because like I’m a Christian but for me it’s way more about my relationship with God then what religion I am. But God always wants what is best for you so you would think that the blood transfusion would be what is best but in the end it was Gods will for the family to turn out how it did and God has a plan for the rest of all there individual lives. Idk I would not do something because religion forbids it but I would do something if God really doesn’t want me to.
Madness crawls in everyone’s minds in different forms religion is just one of them
Well clearly she’s dead.
As a Jehovah’s Witness myself, no. Plus, there are other options like pills or supplements.
Edit: i dont think you guys understand that i am LITERALLY SPEAKING FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE when my sister was giving birth and losing mass amounts of blood my mom gave her a supplement and she was perfectly fine.
Edit 2: none of you say you respect every religion ever again. 💀
Have a friend who's former Amish, he was talking his brothers out of the community until his parents caught wind. They shamed the boys until eventually one took his life, the other made it out, but won't talk to anyone that was involved.
"Religion brings people together!" Always funny when I see shunning, disowning, and killing.
this
Right?!?!
its a difference of following your religion or changing the religion so you can sin in the Name of God
You’re putting one denomination of one religion and judging every other religion based of it
Religion brings people together… usually against itself.
Missed the part in the Bible about it being better allowing your wife to die and orphan her kids and widow her husband than let the doctors who god instilled a love for health science and helping people live out their calling and save this woman. Ladies, this is why you have your own medical directive written up so what happens to you is not dependent on your next of kin.
Her directives would've probably said she didn't want to get a transfusion anyway since she's a Jehovah's witness :/

I thought Islam is worst but this shit is even worse
One of my twins needed a blood transfusion that we were against due to their dad being Muslim. When we knew our son needed the blood we swallowed our pride and concented. I cried watching the blood go in him but he's a happy, healthy 20 year old. Best decision ever!!!
I'm a muslim but I've never heard about its forbidden to have blood transfusion. My own dad regularly donate blood. Where do your husband even learn about that?
What the hell u r saying
I am a Muslim and we allow blood transfusions because we appreciate life
Strange it's allowed in Islam. I'm Muslim,
First of all blood transfusion isn't forbidden in islam.
In islam your life is more important than following a rule. If you have to eat pig to survive, you eat pig, Allah is merciful and forgiving.
@@lym3250 well that's what I was told by my husband was the reason for him not wanting our son to get the transfusion. If he was lying, that's on him cause I knew nothing about Islam until I met him.

When my parents got together, after their 2nd date my dad was looking at wedding dresses already.

He's now very mentally and emotionally abusive towards us but thinks we love him. I'll never ever forgive him for hurting my mom.
Our youth church pastor once warned us about Jéhovah witness. Even their translation of the Bible is different. There's nothing Christian about rejecting blood transfusion. There's a huge difference between eating blood and tranfusing it.
Your religion is not better, none it is.
I'm a Baptist and i tell you, we can eat, drink anything except for alcoholic beverages or anything that harms your body. There are no strict rules to follow in any aspect of life. We just have to be kind, prayerful, helpful, loving to anybody irrespective of religion, caste or creed.
I read the Jehovas Bible and compared it. I‘m muslim not a JW. (i reverted from Orthodox christianity to Islam 5 years ago) but sadly i need to tell you that your pastor lied to you. Their bible is the exact same, only they do is changing „Lord“ into „Jehova“ because thats the name God himself have him in the OT

Why does hospitals need permission to save someone's life. Hospitals needs to proceed if guardians disallows life saving procedures . Hospitals should be given rights to proceed.
If you don't have consent it's assault.
Because patients have the right to refuse treatment.
If a patient has cancer and wants to just die; you can’t strap them down and inject chemotherapy into them / perform surgery. Doctors need consent.
My mother chose a guy that ended up taking her life over me just because she didn't want to be a mother because her parents were raising me. I love her but I have resented her for her choice ever since. I just wanted her to love me I begged her to choose me and she wanted her party life more than me.
I’m so sorry ❤ I had a friend and the exact thing happened to her . Her grandparents raised her and she called them ‘mum and dad’ . I met her at a lady’s college and I still remember the day she heard that her mother unalived herself . It was awful . She became an actress . She was a lovely woman . I lost contact with her when my Facebook page was hacked into and then shut down .
Elderly home are there for some reason.
A doctor should be allowed to give that transfusion without any permission.
Sadly they would be sued for that for sure. You don't want to stand againts fanatics. Even if what your doing is for their own good.
nah legit that would fall under torture laws in my country .... people have the right to choose their procedures
@@카일마진
Key word “THEIR” procedures, not their husbands/wives
I understand that laws differ from country to country. In mine the patient itself is allowed to refuse treatment, but if they are incapable of doing so and someone else is assigned, doctors can overule the decision if the patient's life is in danger and whatever they have is treatable.
Laws aside, from a moral point of view I say the doctor has the right and the duty to tell the partner to buzz off and give the patient this life saving treatment.
exactly. why tf are they going around asking other people? doctors should have the right to do their job, unless the patient chose to not live. that decision is not other people's, whether it's partner or parent.
Always remember you choose life over anything. Nothing's more valuable than life, nothing.
I love the double standards behind it. They want to honor life in every form, but beware of 21st century medicine trying to save them. Of course that shouldn't be the case. But I also like to call it natural selection. One less fanatic in this world certainly won't do you any harm
My deepest condolences to OP and her brother

My mom barrated is for being ungrateful even though it was already set in some that our mom was not allowed the candy. When my Dad found out he went ballistic, tearing the place up and down throwing away all the candy in the house, cursing us out while doing so, in the process he says how he and our mom are the Gods of the house since the gave life to us...I am not a heavly devoted Christan and I barely read the Bible... But I will never forget that or forgive them for saying that, they even laughed about it after.

Note to self stay away from jahovahs witnesses forever 😅
maybe you shouldn’t comment that? as a jehovah’s witness, god has a reason for everything he does/instructs. you should at least do your research on our religion before commenting.
Makes sense.
yes because their only intent is to convert you🤢
FOREVER
wtf
We had a jahovas witness before in the hospital, she needed a blood transfusion thanks to a gi bleed. But because of the religion she refused it. I still don't know what happened to her, I just hope she made it out ok
Jehovah's witnesses, you spelled it wrong
I wish more people knew of the successful outcomes Jehovah’s Witnesses have had with not accepting blood transfusions. My mom (48) is one of Jehovah’s witnesses & last year she was diagnosed with a rare cancer that made the tumor grow very quickly in a few months. She had a 7+ hour surgery to remove a basketball size tumor located in a delicate location. She did not accept a blood transfusion and used one of the alternatives and never had to do chemo nor radiation & she walks about 7 miles a day. My mom was a marathon runner (her last marathon being in 2021) and last month on a random Sunday she walked 14 miles lol. Health wise, a lot of the times I feel she’s doing better than me lol. I hope the Jehovah’s Witness that was in your hospital is doing good as well 🫶 🫶
Imagine having the gal to look your daughter in the eye and tell her that your tenants mean more to you than her mothers life
i know for sure if you have the choice to save someone's life and refuse to do that, you are not seeing heaven
When I was was a kid we used to fill out those in case of emergency cards for the school and take them in the first week of school. Mine had No Blood written really big and bold on the top. When I was in the fourth grade I remember asking why she wrote that in. She was trying to raise up Jehovahs witness and exsplained the pricples about the blood. I remember asking if I was going to die without would she let me die. She said I would be with god so it would be a good thing. That was a lot to take in on the car ride to school. We had a turbulent relationship after that and I fought her hard on going to meetings. She never could get me in the religion. She died 2 years ago from a bone cancer that if she had blood and treatment she could have years longer or beaten it. She declined and died 2 weeks and 1 day after diagnosis. She stood by her Jehovah witness principles to the grave. She definitely would have let me die.
That is so sad, the worst part is how can your family after just let you kids live on the streets after losing both parents.
What i dont get is how can a book written many many years ago tell people they can not have a blood transfusion when it wasnt even invented back then? Or is Jehovah newer then blood transfusion because people give blood willingly so others may live if they need it.
There is a passage in the bible about not consuming blood, so they decided to twist its meaning and say it means people can't have transfusions. Stupid really
i think most people tend to forget how powerful jehovah is.. HE’S LITERALLY GOD. he can easily see the future if he wishes to do so.
The Watchtower Society is newer. They made a lot of intransparent rules to law. And blood transfusions were'nt always banned (same thing with Christmas, birthdays, shunning, the cross....)
I had to grow up with Jehovah Witness parents and it was hard. But it was deadly for my cousin who died bc the surgeons were not able to remove her benign brain tumor completely - the risk of bleeding was too high.
@@kenny995 wow really? It’s like creating a problem where it doesn’t exist
The Watchtower and JW are famous cults in the place where I live too. My family and church always warn me about their absurd beliefs and have taught me to stay away from them.
So saving a woman is not ok but abusing and drinking alcohol is okay? What in the no logic is that
as a jehovah’s witness, nobody said it was okay. no one should be abusive nor an alcoholic. but it’s common for people to grow out of their religion over time.
The video didn’t say that 🤦🏻♀️
It is not ok. And they said he ‘left’. I bet he was made to leave.
Right?!?! Why do we tolerate this??? Why?!?! Why? So someone can have religious freedom??? Well... what happens when that religion kills people? Is it still freedom? Is it still a religion???
That's the logic of all religions - to promote patriarchy
This is exactly why I would never marry someone religious.
If I was put in this kind of situation where my partner's life would be on the line, I would just screw religion without a second thought. And also, letting someone die when you have the means to save them isn't supposed to be a sin?
I feel so bad for this child.
And for the mom and the kid they didn’t deserve that at all
Wdym?
I will never be a part of any church again. I've been shunned for being an outsider.
I'm sorry about that :/
I'm still a believer but I struggle with the church, too. I just never fit the mold. I'm lucky to have some christian friends who are amazing people (as well as non-christian friends who are also amazing people).
I hope you have such people in your life, too. Or that you can find them, because they do exist.
So either way he ended up "betraying" his religion because he was drinking after.:/ As a LDS member, I'm highly glad no medical things are taken from us because of this.
That's Mormons, right ?
That’s why I’m an atheist, I would never choose religion in such a serious matter
I hear you, but there's a huge difference in religion and actually have a relationship with God. I'm a Christian and have never heard of blood transfusions not being allowed.
@@mi3helle707 I don’t know buddy, I’m not Christian like 10/15 years
@@mi3helle707You are correct. I myself am not associated with any churches, but I am a firm believer in God and do my best to follow the Ten Commandments and the law of my country. I strive to show compassion to everyone and help people, regardless of religion or whatever.
I would make the decision to save whoever needed saving. A life is far too precious.
Would you consider changing your mind about being an atheist?
Started cussing the dad out from my phone screen.
It's kinda insane that some people would do this
In Islam we have a very strict rule that says life over religion
Aka of there is something you MUST do to save your life or someone else's but it is not permitted in the religion take it
You get an excuse for saving the life
It's as simple as that
Yeah, I keep seeing so many people just go "all religions are like that" without looking into them. It's sad to see how people let themselves judge without knowing.
Friends disown you? NO! Friends don't disown you.
Edit: Friends stick to you no matter what. They don't leave you for religion.
Disowned as in shunned and never spoken to again
If their friends were from church and they left the church the friends wouldn't be allowed to associate with them.
@@walabang437 yes dude they know what it meant. This person was saying friends won’t disown you. As in, if they disown you, they where not your friends to begin with
@@69kat69 it would have been "friends won't disown you" instead
I just realized disown auto to own-
Lost his wife and the mother of the children for his imaginary friend. Good job humanity.
GOD SAYS FAMILY IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING
SO SAVE YOUR FAMILY
Idk if it was this channel or not but I just heard a story yesterday from a nurses point of view, with basically the same exact story 🥺
Just one of many things that make me strongly dislike those people.
That’s so screwed up, I’m sorry that happened to you both. Huge hug.
That's why we lost "Selena" as well if she wasnt JW she most likely would've survived.
This was so tragic. I hope op is ok. And my opinion, as a religious trauma survivor, screw religion.
Selena Gomez's dead?
@@ktg3811 nope. its a different selena that is a celebrity and jw
@@ktg3811No it think they’re referring to Selena Quintanilla who was also a famous singer
Her parents should've been jailed for this. But no one wants to talk about that.
Are you serious ? I never heard about that actually
Wow. I’m speechless. Prayers for you both that’s tragic.
This is why I'm atheist, there can't be a 'AlL lOvInG gOd' because how would a loving being just sit back and let evil continue in the world, and not save us.
Blood transfusion wasn't invented back when the Bible was written. It said to just not consume blood and people have twisted it's meaning and made it out as you cant have a blood transfusion. But hey whatever, I'm an agnostic
I would offer my blood I'm not letting my mom die
its the authority thats the problem ...it is always the married partner's decision that gets followed in the case of unconscious people
I’m so sorry that you went through that. Keeping you in my prayers
Suddenly proud to not have a religion
Not all are the same
Me too
I know people aren't going to understand that term lol I mean even being christian you can avoid that. It means the church and bible. You can find god on your own if you want
@@phoenixonfire101 yep polytheistic ones don't commit genocide or command you to die
@@rubytiger13....well, you have a lot to learn.
Tbh if she was of the same faith, wouldn’t she have wanted it that way? If he saved her then she could have thought she was damned for the rest of her life and hated him for it.
broke up with my ex because he was jehova. he kept it from me 5 years of friendship & 7 years of dating. no one around us even had a clue and then he wanted me to convert although I had sworn off religion many years prior and he knew very well my disdain for it. had this same conversation, told him if we had kids I would choose their lives over some god and damn blood.
They should have probably discussed the event of things going wrong beforehand with each other as well as with the doctors. But I guess will never know what the wife thought since she transitioned.
If he was a Jehovah she would have probably been too brainwashed to save herself. She would've wanted to die for her abusive skydaddy and abandoned anyone that actually loved her
I mean, she was a Jehovah’s Witness. Doesn’t that mean that she doesn’t want a blood transfusion? They might have even discussed it.
In maternity care, birth care plans are discussed. Being a JW it would have indeed be noted.
Haemorrhage during birth can be / is catastrophic. Thousands die worldwide from such a complication even with blood administered.
Exactly!
A lot of people don’t know this but our dear Selena Quintanilla died because of her parents, they didn’t sign the consent to give her a blood transfusion.
She had the transfusion though… her dad was pissed that she got it, but she did get the transfusion…. It was just too late at that point.
So thankfull for Islam since one rule we have is that saving human life is always the priority so therefore we are allowed to make exceptions in critical situations.
I would literally rather burn in hell than let my family member die over something that could have been prevented.
That’s my religion too and I had a family member that was also one and although he was in critical condition he and his parents refused to get a transfusion and he sadly passed.
Religious is a major test of how kind or cruel humans are willing to be to each other under the guise of intense belief or life difficulties.
As mush as I'm mad at what the dad did, it hard cos brainwashing does things to do and unless you take the huge jump and leave the religion behind, only then its easier to see the toxicity
Theres a lot of religious people who take advantage of religion when i was growing up. Thats when i learned that you dont really need religion if you can just be a decent person
Dogma is the bane of sense and spirituality, making religion a shackle, not a guide for the spirit.
“I’ll never forgive her forgiving birth to my little sibling” same
The best example of how sometimes you need to step out of your religion to realize how shackled your thoughts are.
I’m so sorry 😢 Ive heard stories like this, this gift of art is so beautiful,
So you can't save your wife and the mother of your children but you can become alcoholic and abusive...? Another score for religion
This is the equivalent to
If you were on fire and I had a cup of water next to me I’d drink it.
This poor guy lost his mum when there was a chance to save her
I’m so sorry you guys had to go thru that ❤
Sounds about right... I've been in the religion growing up and a little now as an adult, for these same reasons i don't believe they were the right religion for me.
I feel it. I don't actively go to the kingdom hall anymore but I'm still following the beliefs. I do however feel like some things are definitely wrong within the religion. Kinda mixed ya know?
Do you take submissions for Reddit stories for these videos?
Raised JW and left when I was 25. My mother almost died after her spleen burst due to a car accident when I was 16. I'm so sorry for what happened to you.
What the heck with that belief!? I understand the important of religion but not to this blindness
i recommend you do your research on our religion.
@@hazbinussy i know, even my self been thought half year in the er due to extreme blood lost
Those ppl are delusional
Relogions are the cause of too much damage.
My dad became a Jehovah's witness when i turned 1 and became absent almost immediately, throwing fits over taking care of me and my brother cause he wanted to get drunk on the couch and watch hockey
My mom left him when i was 6 and took both me and my brother with her. If we stayed with him, one of us most likely would've died since he drinks and drives very often and got another DUI back in June, if someone was in the car with him they literally wouldve died
I dont talk to him anymore 🙂
We need to give women and men the option to have spouses be bypassed when they’re being fools. I’d do anything to save my husbands life and I know he will do the same for me, religious or not.
My mother had a stroke a month after i was born. She had both clots and hemorrhaging. She almost didnt survive it and her whole life changed. Now I'm 37 and she is 65, and she is absolutely the strongest person I've ever known and will ever know for the struggles she had to overcome just to live life normally again. Definitely thankful she or my father didnt have these rules to further complicate things. I wouldn't be who i am today if it wasn't for her.
