Do Jehovah Witnesses do blood transfusions even if their child is dying and NEED a blood transfusion because there is not much hope of survival if any hope of survival?
Jehovah's Witnesses who have lost blood are entitled to refuse a blood transfusion even if it will inevitably lead to their death; but they have no right to sentence their children to die.
A qualified doctor is entitled to give a blood transfusion provided the child's consent is given. If the doctor is unhappy about this (though why should any doctor be unwilling top save a child's life?), the case should be referred to a Doctor Who is free from such qualms.
If the Jehovah's Witness parent seeks to intervene to prevent the transfusion, the case should be rushed to court, if there is time. If not, the child should be given blood immediately.
