When Daryl Frame learned he needed open‑heart bypass surgery, he faced an added challenge: as a Jehovah’s Witness, he could not receive a blood transfusion. He brought this up immediately. “My surgeon was very familiar with treating Jehovah’s Witness patients, and that gave me peace of mind,” he says.
With careful preparation and a bloodless surgical approach, the cardiac team performed a successful bypass. His recovery has been smoother than expected, and today he feels stronger and more confident in his health.

Heart patient Mr. Frame hopes his story encourages others to ask questions, seek experienced care, and move forward with confidence.
