It is BECAUSE OF this burden I've seen placed on women that I asked the question. So please do answer and help me and my Christian sisters know how we should view our hair when cutting it or sacrificing it for medical treatment might save our lives.
JD made a great point in that the JWs are, almost to a man, willing to refuse blood...at least until death is near, then a family member usually consents while the patient is unconscious. It's this little niggling doubt that they have that says 'what if I'm wrong and I kill my parent, sibling, child by not allowing them to have blood, even if I would refuse it for myself?'

I have never heard of anyone in my short few years of life feel condemned about losing hair, cancer or not.......
