Non-blood medical management of surgery

I thought I'd share this interesting link, at http://www.watoday.com.au/world/jehovahs-witnesses-recover-best-from-surgery-despite-refusing-blood-20120703-21fi1.html .

It talks about the improved outcomes of even major surgeries if patients do not receive a blood transfusion.

Has nothing at all to do with Guatemala, but I found it very interesting and even comforting.  I reject blood transfusions on religious grounds, but am gratified to know that excellent results can be obtained.  Bill had open heart surgery without use of blood.

I just wanted to share...
