BLOOD TRANSFUSION...WHAT IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT?

So i met a patient one time who had a baby and lost a lot of blood. Prior to her surgery she signed that she didn't want any form of blood transfusion because of her religion. she was a witness and it was against her religion. And then the doctors managed and did everything the could and kept her as healthy as possible to keep her PCV normal and all that but then she had some complications and then she needed  to be transfused.
   Her husband refused,her pastor refused,they said it was seriously against their religion and they were going to pray and God was going to revive her. She was dying and the doctors were running out of options because they had used all forms of blood ex panders and all that.
