In the Mishnah, the Sages related of Miriam of Tarmod that one kind of blood was sprinkled on her behalf when she was told that her daughter was dangerously ill. She went and found her daughter had died (and thus Miriam became accidentally unclean), and the Sages told her to offer her remaining sacrifices after purification.Mishnah Nazir 6:11, in, e.g., The Mishnah: A New Translation, translated by Jacob Neusner, page 442. Babylonian Talmud Nazir 47a.
