Read How Jehovah Witness Man Allowed His Wife and Unborn Baby Die, Because He Refused Blood Transfusion
A Facebook user, Ajayi Afolabi, narrates how a
pregnant woman died at Lagos General Hospital because her husband
instructed doctors not to give her blood despite being in need of it.
It is a life experience of the narrator, and it's quite touching!
See the details below as narrated by Ajayi Afolabi ...
So, I was at a General Hospital in Lagos while an heavily pregnant woman was rushed in on child labor. She was immediately taken to the theater and after some minutes, one of the lead doctors came out to request for the husband of the pregnant lady.
So, I was at a General Hospital in Lagos while an heavily pregnant woman was rushed in on child labor. She was immediately taken to the theater and after some minutes, one of the lead doctors came out to request for the husband of the pregnant lady.
DOC: Your wife is short of blood. She needs an immediate blood transfusion.
Husband: Same thing they said from the hospital she has been in the last 3 days of labour. We are Jehovah witness, we don’t accept unknown blood. CONTINUE....
DOC: This is highly important to save your wife’s life and the unborn baby.
Husband: We have worked for the lord with all our strength, he can’t fail us, she can’t die.
DOC: I may need to proceed forcefully if you don’t accept.
Husband: Then be ready to face the law in court.
So the doctor went back to the theater, asked the woman if she has another relative close by who can sign to receive blood while she was wheeled out of the theater. The woman cried with her pale eyes and begged the husband to allow the doctors transfuse but he refused bluntly. I was so angry and I walked up to him. Tried convincing but he was so adamant and stubborn.
Some mins later, the doctors asked him to take his wife to LUTH, for better health care facilities that could condole non blood transfusion. He was requested to get an ambulance for transportation. To my surprise, this nigga got a Volvo stretcher ambulance meant for dead people. Gosh, so angry at this point.
Called a couple of people around and I aided a quick release of a proper life saving ambulance. While wheeling this woman to the ambulance after wasting about 4hours, she gave up in tears and was later confirmed that the unborn baby also died.
Wow! What a wicked world in the name of a borrowed religion. Then the husband bursted into tears. I didn’t do much, I moved close, looked straight into his eyes, slapped and gave him a couple kicks which later threw the whole general hospital into chaos.
I later reminisced over it the following day and asked myself this questions; why would I allow my loved one die in the name of a religion? Should the religion save lives or kill?
Jehovah’s Witnesses are known to refuse transfusion of blood because of their belief. This has led to death of many of them.
