Lady passes away after reportedly refusing blood transfusion due to religious belief
Tragedy as Jehovah’s Witness lady passes away after reportedly refusing life-saving blood transfusion.
The incident was reported online by a netizen known as @MrsZanga who revealed that the lady was her cousin.
According to the narration, the lady, who’s a mother, had rejected the crucial blood transfusion that could have possibly saved her life.
Apparently, being a Jehovah’s Witness, her faith goes against receiving the blood transfusion.
Mrs revealed that the cousin had passed away, after she rejected the vital medical procedure.
@MrsZanga said …
“My cousin died this morning, leaving behind 3 kids. The youngest is 4yo🥲
What killed her? She refused blood transfusions because she’s a Jehovah’s Witness 💔💔💔😭😭😭”
Reactions have followed …
@Allezamani asked: “This insanity still dey happen?”
@highchart remarked: “Sorry for your loss
I don’t pity but the kids she left behind😩 God will guide them and keep them, they will be alright if the uncles and aunties are good people to fend for them”
@MrsZanga replied: “My fear is that the siblings are not even talking to themselves. They’re all Jehovah’s witnesses oo, but they’ve been in malice with each other for years😭😭
I don’t even understand the part of the Bible they study 🤦🏾♀️”
@beaubobritton shared: “I had the same thing happen when I worked in the ER on night shift. A woman was literally bleeding out and I asked one of my female nurse buddies to go in and chat her, woman to woman, and she eventually got the patient to accept a transfusion of 3 units which saves her life.”
@ShedakpePerson revealed: “I recall when my dad’s late uncle was in this situation. The family refused.
Dr asked them to drop money, that he has alternative way of treating him.
Before dawn, Dr gave him plenty blood.
He just said, “make una carry una papa, he don well”
Lol!”
