    The son must be traumatized learning that his father killed himself to save him. Wonder is he saw that too, it must be heartbreaking
    Edit: ok to the ppl saying this is fake blablabla, I know that. We watch shows and think of the characters feelings, reactions etc, we empathize / sympathize because this could be happening to someone in real life. We don’t think this is real because who tf would think there’s a camera crew filming everything happening in reality. So to those replying / implying that I think this is real - what went through ur head?

      Basically, the new COO told Lanik that he couldn't authorise the transplant - so he followed what she said. To me, he looked like he regretted it and he didn't want to do it but the COO kinda just tells him what to do. At the end of the episode, its shows that he feels bad about what happened and talks with the COO but she's like "Just because he's dead doesn't mean the decision wasn't the right one."

    Choi is the only capable guy in that ER most of the time.
    I hope that child grows to understand and celebrate the father's suicide rather than have the more common reaction of "he's dead because of me".
    I've seen a lot of kids that process change, death and trauma very well until some professional gets ahold of them and purposely "draws out" the sadness, depression, etc and then just keeps pulling on it, lingers on it and just shoves it back in.
    When there are ways to help and teach and support without causing depression.

    2:43 Real headshots are even more disconcerting. A instant-death wound to the brain like that ruptures many blood vessels, but not enough to instantly bleed out. The heart still pumps for a time, so blood would regularly gush out of the wound with each pulse and compression.

      To keep the organs viable.
      Organs need a constant blood supply in order to remain viable for transplant. A dead brain shuts the body down, including the heart. So, manual compressions are needed in order to keep the organs viable.

      It's not to save him but to keep his organs intact. Every cell in our body needs oxygen and glucose to function and to "Stay alive". These two are provided by the blood and the cells keep getting new Oxygen and Glucose because of the blood circulation. So once your heart stops (you die) the circulation is interrupted and the cells in all your organs don't get any more oxygen and glucose to function so they die and the organ becomes useless. Each organ resists a certain amount of time without new blood and I think kidneys are some of the ones that die off quickly. So Dr. Choi is making sure that this man's death is not in vain, he makes sure he can save the child by keeping the man's kidneys usable.
      I hope I explained it well. (Sorry English isn't my first language)

    • @mindblock3928
      @mindblock3928 5 ปีที่แล้ว +76

      He couldn't. The man was a criminal. If he had donated a kidney to his son, he would have had to have continued to go back for dialysis afterward. The government doesn't want to pay for additional medical treatments for criminals that are deemed unnecessary, so they don't allow convicts to donate organs (at least while they are alive). Even though it's sad, that was the only way they would allow the father to donate his kidney to his son; if he were dead.

      @@Tushiwushiful That is true, requiring dialysis would be due to complications. But there are many other reasons prisoners are denied the ability to donate. Prisoners tend to be at high risk for disease and illness, there is debate over whether they can truly give informed consent when they have been institutionalized, there can be other side effects such as high blood pressure and there is generally a discomfort with receiving an organ from a known criminal. This issue is still highly debated. Many argue against it because they worry that criminals will be taken advantage of (some prisons have offered organ donation as a way to gain "good grace" from the judicial system) which is a manipulative practice.
