BAPTISM OF DESIRE66. Some people die while being ignorant of the Gospel of Christ and His Church. In such cases, it can be presumed that they have received the Baptism of desire and were saved if they truly searched for the truth and lived righteous lives by the will of God in accordance with their understanding. "It may be supposed that such persons would have desired Baptism explicitly if they had known its necessity." (C.C.C. # 1260, 1281)
BAPTISM OF BLOOD67. In a situation where someone endures death for the sake of his faith without having received the Sacrament of Baptism, he is baptised by death for and with Christ. The Church recognizes that in such a case, he has received the Baptism of blood, this being like a baptism of desire. Although not a Sacrament, the Baptism of blood reflects the fruit of the Holy Spirit which shines forth. (C.C.C. # 1258)

Similarites being the water baptism is a physical act and the baptism of desire is not the way that Jesus was baptized. Rather the desire is actually a desire to not have to do more than just think about baptism.
Yes. There are two other ways to go to heaven. Baptism of Desire and Baptism of Blood. The first way is the Baptism of desire. Baptism of desire is when someone is sorry for their sins and cooperates with God's grace by trying to please him as best they know how to. The next way is the Baptism of blood. Baptism of blood is when someone gives up their life in martyrdom to Jesus. This shows that they have faith in Jesus and were saved by him.
The Roman Catholic church accepts two broad classes of alternative to the sacrament of Baptism:- so-called Baptism by Desire, and Baptism by Blood.If you search carefully you may find earlier versions of the Catechism (especially in non-English languages) which refer to Baptism by Desire and Baptism by Blood as different forms of Baptism, but this terminology often led to confusion - these days the Church prefers to speak of them as alternatives to Baptism (Baptism by water).Mainstream Church doctrine does not accept any baptism before the Ministry of Our Lord as a valid sacrament (specifically the baptisms of John the Precursor are held to be different from true baptisms by the Council of Trent); a fuller treatment of the complex doctrinal reasoning surrounding pre-Christian baptism is offered in the New Advent Encyclopedia.
Baptism of blood refers to martyrdom. A person who through no fault of their own has not been baptized but dies for the Faith will be saved anyway.

The Catholic Church consists of all Christ's baptized who remain faithful. The saints in heaven are referred to as the Church Triumphant, those in purgatory are referred to as the Church Suffering, and those on earth are referred to as the Church Militant (or sometimes the Pilgrim Church). The Church has always believed in three types of Baptism, one of which, Baptism of Water, is the norm, while Baptism of Blood and Baptism of Desire may also bring people into the Church at the moment of death (See the Catechism of the Catholic Church, #1257-1261). Baptism of Blood applies to those who died for the faith before being able to receive Baptism of Water. Baptism of Desire applies to those who would have desired Baptism had they known the Gospel. Those who do not remain faithful may be cut off from the Church through sin, which is known as excommunication, which may occur automatically or by judgment from the bishops of the Church. The purpose of excommunication is to make clear how grave some sins are so that those persons will return to the Church.
