Are you a Jehovah's Witness Child Living With Lupus Or Similar Health Condition?

Our daughter is a Publisher and we are Witnesses of our God Jehovah. We are looking for other children in the faith who have Lupus or a similar condition to connect with for fellowship and friendship and support. It is hard at age 11 years old to keep up with friends who are healthy and active. It would be nice for our daughter to find another child to relate to in the faith.Are you a Jehovah's Witness Child Living With Lupus Or Similar Health Condition?I hope that you are seeking medical attention for your child. As much as I am in favor of people being able to practice their own religion...that stops short of abusing your child by denying medical attention. Lupus can be a manageable disease if treated, however can be life threatening if left untreated.



Case law prohibits you from denying your child medical attention if they require it. I hope this is not the case.



Good luck to you.Are you a Jehovah's Witness Child Living With Lupus Or Similar Health Condition?It is a fallacy to assume that Jehovah's Witnesses do not seek or accept medical treatment.

We indeed do accept it.



It is only blood transfusions that we reject %26amp; we opt for safer non-blood treatment instead which do not carry the risks common with blood transfusions

Are you a Jehovah's Witness Child Living With Lupus Or Similar Health Condition?Check with the hospital where you're taking her for treatment. They may have a network of support groups that will include children of Jehovah's Witnesses. Also, check with the Hospital Liaison Committee (ask your congregation secretary)... they may have first-hand knowledge of what you seek. Finally, you can check with http://www.noblood.org for the same information. I've had trouble accessing the site the last couple of days, so it may be down.



I understand your desire to connect with other Witnesses who share your child's illness, but do you think you could have made a wiser decision than by coming here?



The first poster showed their ignorance, not only of your faith but your efforts to save the life of your child by any means possible short of a blood transfusion. They will only bring up doubts and offer no substantive solutions to your question. They will simply try to tear down your spirituality and offer nothing in its place.



I hope this information helps, sister. I wish your daughter, you and your family well! And "beware the voice of strangers."
