I like how they automatically condition the statement so that the reader assumes the only negative factor was a rejection of a blood transfusion, and that the statement almost assumes it is 100% certain there would have been no other complications if she had had one.

Anyone whose done much medical research, or ever had family deal with major operations, transplants, or transfusions, realizes that there are often severe side effects that cause a negative outcome even when the "right" procedure is followed.

Many major medical centers are opening up entire "bloodless" wings or hospital units because of the growing belief that blood transfusions do more harm than good, religious beliefs aside. I think it is possible, maybe even probable that, within our lifetime, that that particular procedure will go the way of "bleeding" people to remove toxins and infection.
