One other thing to mention is when two parties of different religions have opposite ideas about medical treatment. I had a client one of which was Protestant and one was a Jehovah's Witness. As you may know, the Jehovah's Witness' believe in what's called "bloodless surgery" in that transfusions are a no-no. here we had a 3 year old child with a history diabetes. A possible kidney transplant and transfusion may be in her future. As she was being raised as a J.W. the religion of the father would dictate the medical treatment she received and given the nature of her condition, may jeopardize her life in the future. Al interesting questions... Regards, Joe Hi Giuseppe: Nice article. One other thing to mention is when two parties of different religions have opposite ideas about medical treatment.
