surely there has to be a ruling, where as, if they can do something to help save the patient, and the patient refuses help due to the religion thing, can they not take legal action and do the transfusion anyway?

No, there isn't, and rightly so.

Maybe they'll just be happy that their mother died for something she believed in? However misguided.

| Well, obviously not.
Are you really advocating people being given medical treatment against their will?

exactly, if there's any good from this, her kids won't be inculcated into such a moronic religion.

This news is so sad - after all, it's still a net increase of +1 Jehova's Witness in the world. :***(

| Doubt it when the religion is the reason she's dead. Can't see the kids reacting all that well to it. Even if they take RH's point and accept she died for her beliefs, I'd imagine they would want to ensure that their own kids grew up with their mother around them.
