There is no scripture in the Bible that forbids a transfusion.
From what I've been able to gather from the few JW's I've talked to, both old and new testaments said that blood is life. JW's take this to mean that only god can give or take life. Blood transfusion is interfering with god's business.
​
Anyone know if this is accurate at all?

Re: Re-Help
Hrm... I wonder if they'd permit blood transfusion if the blood is artificial. I know that there's been some progress made by some scientists toward producing artificial human blood, or at least something that could temporarily replace it.

Have you considered getting some children? Having children around will give you a leverage in convincing her to not die.
