I respect anyone's right to decide how they will deal with illness, whether it's based on their religion or just their personal choices. It's really not about being a JW, it's about individual freedom.
I knew an old guy who had a treatable cancer, but he refused chemo & radiation. He didn't want to risk spending his final years in & out of the hospital. Technology probably could have saved him, but it didn't jiive with his beliefs (albeit, non-religious).
I admit that I do struggle when a child is prevented from gettimg treatment.
