Soon, in the doctor's office...

"Mrs. Carter, I understand how you feel, but as a doctor, I must explain the situation to you. Mr. Carter suffered severe head trauma and has fallen into a deep coma. He has lost his pupillary light reflex, corneal reflex, swallowing reflex, cough reflex, and tendon reflex.

"He has no spontaneous breathing, and can only be sustained by medication and medical equipment. Although his heart is still beating, his brain is unresponsive. If the medical equipment is turned off, his heart will stop beating immediately."

As Sebastian's wife, Rosalie had the right to make medical decisions on his behalf in emergencies when he couldn't decide for himself. If she signed the consent form, the organ transplant surgery could be performed immediately.

However, it would also mean she was giving up on Sebastian.

Rosalie's eyes were red and swollen from crying. "Is there any other way? Doesn't he have any chance of waking up? With how advanced technology is nowadays, there must be another treatment, right?"

"Mrs. Carter, the human brain is complex. Mr. Carter's brain injury is severe. With the current technology, we cannot restore blood flow to his brain. We've done our best. His chances of waking up are extremely slim. Even with machines and medication, we can't sustain his heartbeat indefinitely. If we delay further, his organs will begin to fail."

Rosalie wiped away her tears, took a deep breath to calm herself, and asked, "What do you suggest we do now?"
