When cancer reaches the end stage, any part of the patient's body may be in danger at any time, and subsequently life-threatening.
This is because the entire body system, similar to an ever-higher stack of building blocks, is already on the verge of collapse and could come crashing down at any moment.
What's more, Nicholas's son is only 12 years old, and his body has long been pushed to the breaking point in his years of fighting cancer.
Add to that the fact that the tumor in his brain was getting bigger, and that after his vision and hearing were affected.
His emotions were so intense that the doctors gave him a sedative, and all of these factors were speeding up his demise.
Nicholas through the window, looking at his son in the hospital bed, he is now completely desperate.
He knew that he had worked so hard for so many years, but he had lost after all.
Just then, a doctor came up to him and said with a little respect and a little sympathy: "Mr. Nicholas, Jimmy's condition is really bad, I'm afraid he won't survive the night, do you think we should still prepare resuscitation measures?"
Because Nicholas is the FDA's top, and in charge of the drug audit power, so the national medical system, he has a very strong network of contacts.
Therefore, he was able to use the world's most cutting-edge anti-cancer technology on his son in a constant stream.
It is also because of this that the doctors at the hospital are extremely attached to his son.
Right now, the doctor also knows that his son has no chance of survival, but in view of Nicholas's always strong faith, he still wants to consult Nicholas's opinion to see if he still wants to do a final resuscitation of his son, again.
No matter what status, what background, once a seriously ill person, not only becomes a subject without dignity but also may have to suffer the most powerful pain in the world.
In many means of resuscitation, the damage to the body is very huge, such as cardiac arrest, strong means of cardiac resuscitation, may break the patient's ribs;
Cardiac defibrillation may also lead to skin burns; breathing difficulties, doctors even need to intubate the patient's trachea, or even attach to the whole body all sorts of tubes, and then attach to the patient a variety of equipment for extracorporeal circulation.
Some patients, after this series of resuscitation, have a chance to regain their lives.
But the end-stage cancer patients, through such a huge array of resuscitation, is similarly to let life without dignity to continue to hold on for several days only.
The hospital where Nicholas's son is getting the treatment, called the Mayo Clinic, is the best oncology hospital in the U.S and even in the world.
And the Washington campus is the newest and most sophisticated clinic they just opened this year, investing huge financial and material resources to build it.
The doctors here have extremely wealth experience in saving lives, and almost represent the peak level of medical treatment of cancer now, and have a great reputation worldwide.
The global medical establishment has a very high opinion of Mayo, and various rumors can be summed up in 1 sentence: Lord of Hell gives death to 1 on the 3rd night, Mayo keeps him until the 5th night.
Therefore, Mayo's doctors are also sure to let Nicholas's son live several more days by resuscitating at all costs.
However, it all depends on Nicholas's wishes.
After all, in the doctor's opinion, the child has experienced too much pain, at this time, there is absolutely no need for him to continue to endure a round of hellish torture before leaving.
