Blood?

I'm performing major surgery on a patient this week who for religious reasons is refusing any and all blood transfusions. I always worry in these situations. I therefore make sure the patient understands and consents a possible outcome of death if blood products are refused.

Regardless, I'm sure that while I'm operating, everytime the patient loses a drop of blood, I'll in turn lose a drop of perspiration.
