Without any desire to criticize anybody, because I have no way to know all the details, I would just state that my own experience has been that some medical professionals display a superior attitude when it comes to patients' rights. I do not accuse anone of that in the present situation; I only know that the attitude exists.

I am the parent of 4 children and several grandchildren. As yet, I have not had to face the blood issue. But I know that normally and generally speaking, no state, no judge, and no court cares about or loves a child more than do the parents. I myself would do everything to preserve the life of a child, but not to the point of disregarding what I consider to be Divine law.

Believing that the Creator of life can also restore it if He wills, I would feel duty-bound to consider any and all suitable options that allow me to preserve life now, as well as the prospects for life in the "age to come."
