Chapter: 3746

It was precisely because of this that the hospital doctors treated Jimmy with utmost care.

Currently, the doctor also knows that his son no longer has any chance of survival, but considering Smith's unwavering faith throughout, he still wanted to seek Smith's opinion, wondering if he would want to make one last attempt at rescuing his son.

Regardless of one's identity or background, once becoming a critically ill patient, one becomes utterly devoid of dignity, not only lacking dignity but also possibly suffering from the strongest pain in this world.

Many rescue measures can cause significant harm to the body, such as cardiac arrest, powerful cardiopulmonary resuscitation methods that may break patients' ribs; arrhythmia may lead to skin burns; and respiratory difficulties may require intubation of the patient's trachea or even inserting multiple tubes throughout their body.

In some cases, patients who undergo this series of rescue measures have a chance to regain new life. However, cancer patients in the terminal stage of the disease may only prolong their meaningless life for a few more days after undergoing such intense treatment.

Jimmy was at Mayo Clinic, which is the best tumor specialty hospital in the entire US and even worldwide. The Washington area is where they recently opened a brand-new, state-of-the-art diagnostic center with enormous financial investment.

The doctor here has extremely rich experience in rescuing patients, almost reaching the pinnacle of medical treatment for cancer globally, with a huge reputation worldwide.

Global medical institutions highly evaluate Mayo's performance, and various rumors can be summarized into one sentence: the devil lets someone die at three o'clock, but Mayo keeps him alive until five o'clock.

So, the doctors at Mayo also have the confidence to rescue Smith's son at any cost, letting him live a few more days.

However, all of this still depends on Smith's willingness.

After all, from the doctor's perspective, this child has already experienced too much suffering; at this moment, there is no need to let him continue to suffer one more round of torture before he leaves.

Smith was crying red-eyed, with tears pouring down like beans.

He hesitated for a while and then sighed, saying, "Alright... just let him quietly pass away in his last moments... I don't want him to suffer again..."

The doctor nodded solemnly, opened his mouth, and said, "Mr. Smith, you've made an extremely correct decision; I believe Jimmy will be grateful for that."

Smith choked back a sob and asked, "Will he wake up?"

The doctor said, "The sedative we're giving him is very small, with no unexpected complications; it should take about another hour before he wakes up, so your family can go in and spend more time with him."

Smith nodded with red eyes, and the doctor patted his shoulder reassuringly, saying, "You can go in now, and I won't bother you and your family any longer. If there's anything urgent, just ring the bell, and I'll be here first thing."

"Okay..."

The doctor left, and originally high standards for the ICU environment were no longer enforced, which meant that patients in the ward had already started to take things easy.

Smith brought his wife and daughter into the ward, where their son was still unconscious on the bed, but it was clear that he was now in a very bad state, with no color in his face, pale and weak.

Smith's wife's emotions were getting out of control, crying and collapsing at the bedside. She gripped her son's hand tightly, choking back tears, saying, "Jimmy, you have to get better, Mom can't lose you..."

Smith quietly wiped away a tear, choking back words, "Jane, we're losing Jimmy, you need to accept this reality..."

"Not..." Jane Smith shook her head and said, "I won't accept! No one is going to take my son away from me, not even God!"

Smith was at his wit's end, saying, "Jane, we've exhausted all possible methods in this world... what can you do if you don't accept?"

Jane seemed a little crazy, blurting out, "My good friend knows a medium! That medium lives in Arizona and is said to be able to communicate with spirits as well as being an expert in some Mexican cult. I'm going to call her right now!" JrNovels.com
