God that would be terrifying to be 15 years old and being faced with the fact that your only surviving parent might die. I'd be scared out of my mind and beg for them to let me see my mum if she was in that condition.
@@MrMonkey2150 If this kid was an adult and had a job and stable income I'm pretty sure he wouldn't be worried about falling into a foster system. I think his age would add that extra fear of dread into him.
How many people can you think of would be happy to hear that there was an option that had the possibility of restoring function, but you were denied access to that option because it was risky? I know I would by far prefer taking that risk for that chance over being left knowing that there was a chance that wasn't even attempted.
probably all of the hodpials lawyers would be happy about it. wrongful death suits are very "quirky" so to speak. i this case, i don't think the kid would have the resources to sue, but if a rich person was faced with the same decision, chose the "restoring function" option then the patient died, there could be a lwasuit. the family member claiming the doctors gave them false-hope etc. they probably wouldn't win, but even the act of them filing a lawsuit would skyrocket the hospitals lawsuit insurance premiums which would have a cascading effect on staff salaries, the hospital's overall rating and the funding donations they receive so... yeah, the safer option probably would have made lots of people happy
At 15 he absolutely should be able to speak on behalf of his Dad, especially given the fact that he lost his mom and has no other family... he would be much more mature than other kids his age.
No, he shouldn't. If his Dad had died, that would mean he'd likely blame himself for making whatever decisions he did. Especially at that age and just having suffered a trauma. Those are hard decisions to make for adults, nevermind for KIDS.
@@TheYasmineFlower I'm not saying let the 15 year old choose the treatment. I'm saying he should be allowed to speak on his father's behalf- to the doctors making the decision.
@@amandasnider2644 He would still blame himself because he would probably believe that he influenced the doctors to make the wrong decision. plus, adults don't always share everything with their children. he can't know for sure what his dad would want.
There's something called Gillick competency, which is when a child is assessed as being a mature minor, able to understand their medical/legal options and able to make independent choices about their care. This kid at 15 could well have been deemed a mature minor and able to make his own decisions, but whether that indicates his legal decision-making for a next of kin, Im not sure
@@ZosiaDabrowski i think that's a very narrow scope of decision making you're talking about. it's usually used in the context of custody i think. like, a minor who is deemed competent in the way you describe could make decisions on which parent they want to stay with in a divorce and/or if they want to go back to the custody of their parents if they got taken away, etc. not sure how many medical decision they can make, but 100% certain the decisions are limited to their own body. a person under 18 is not legally allowed to make medical decisions for other people, even their own family
Maxwell Jenkins has come a long way since his short few episode arc on Chicago Fire a few seasons back - when his policewoman mum was shot & killed while Severide was looking after him. Good to see the kid doing well for himself
In the real world, it is very frowned upon for doctors to say "it'll be alright" before the diagnostics are done. It's why I stopped watching hospital series; they were so bad lol
Doctor's like Dr Abrams with that arrogance and self entitlement scare me i hope they don't exist. Can you imagine a doctor that would rule out any hope or options? SMH
He is probaply one of the most sensible doctors we see here. His assesments are based on facts, statistics and the parameters given, the others are based on the hope that the dice lands on a 6 rather than 1 through 5 all of which would make the situation far worse. The demeanor could use some changing but I'd rather have someone blunt than someone that's not willing to stand their ground.
He didn't rule out any hope he made a calculated risk/benefit analysis of the injury and available treatment options. Listen to what he said at 6:40 it would change the calculus meaning with the new finding the potential benefits of the laminectomy are far greater to the patient relative to the risk
GAWD I wish my hospital had a travelling x-ray going to every room (I’m guessing…?) My Mum had a femur fracture, was in the ER for hours, and she passed out in pain before she had her first x-ray. Not anyone’s problem, just bitching in comments. Sorry…
I don’t know what to do with my life right now I just want to be able to be with you and I want to be with you and I don’t want to be with you I want to be in love 😍 I I’m I’m just saying I’m going out with the boys right away because they don’t know where they’re coming to eat or where to get lunch 🥪 so if I can come back to the store I can get them and I will get you something for dinner or you could come to the house if you’re hungry and I don’t want you guys going to be late for school because you don’t want me there so you don’t want me here so you don’t want me in your car so you don’t want me at

Would be scary no matter your age

@@jaydejots1674 given the state of CPS in the USofA then that would be my fear to!
@@jaydejots1674 So you think that foster care would be his first thought, with his father in that condition in the next room? Doubtful, very doubtful.
@Hilary C when you're close to dying or someone you know is, then it tends to make your mind wonder everywhere. Past, future, just all over the place.
What an incredible actor this young man is, I just wanna give him a hug!! 🥺
his work in lost in space is amazing aswell
Yeah
Came here to say this - that kid is one hell of ana ctor I fucking teared up hard.

The doctor who was with the kids has such a calming presence
The kids a great actor 👍
You should see him in Lost in Space
The same thing happened to me and my dad and my dad sadly died and I hate for this to happen to anybody else rest in peace to my dad
I’m so sorry🕊
Thank u
RIP I hope your ok fly high to your dad 🕊️🕊️🕊️
I'm so sorry condolences
@@portiasmith6445 thank u
Clicked so fast since Chicago med is the only thing that makes me not bored 😭✋
lol same
He was really scared for his dad but I was so glad to see them together at the end.
Maxwell Jenkins is a really good actor❤️I just want to hug him tightly ♥️
Kids a great actor
This is a great father son relationship so loveing.
Chicago Med just ain’t the same
Atleast the neurosurgeon is still there, always spitting facts
Indeed
I want all the old actors back 😫😫
@@janeruby1795I agree
Yeah I agree I want Brian Tee, Yaya DeCosta and the old chicago med back
That boy is a great actor
thats a really good child actor wow
Dr Abrams is portrayed as the villain in this cut, but I think he is a great doctor
Maxwell Jenkins has come a long way since his short few episode arc on Chicago Fire a few seasons back - when his policewoman mum was shot & killed while Severide was looking after him. Good to see the kid doing well for himself
Kid has a great future if hes already pulling off acting like this.
First, also this was really intense but really good and little bit sad too- jeez
It has changed do not limit..
It heart breaking to see a child who dad is faced with this I’m just wondering did the father have the surgery
That one doctor in the white coat is BEEN THERE DONE THAT BOUGHT THE TSHIRT😮
I think the kid would have accepted the loss if they had tried to fix it. I would rather exhaust all options before calling quits
He is so handsome that boy😍🤍
You may be just a kid but that girls ride even though he’s only 15 he’s almost 16 years old which makes him able to make his decisions
Maxwell Jenkins !❤❤❤😍😍😍😍😍😍
Danger Will Robinson!
I didn’t know maxwell Jenkins was in Chicago med
his mum was aswell
Why the father and his son are admitted to Chicago med after a traumatic accident that could leave the dad paralyzed
Why are all of Chicago's parents dying like all of the children say their mother or father are the only ones they have left
Why patients are admitted to Chicago med after a traumatic accident that could leave the dad paralyzed
1:00 the blood is so edited
Wait what show is this? I though this was chicago med because of the title
it is chicago med?
@@user-PENN of course not dude Then where's dr Reese, Will, Maggie and everyone else?! Who the hell are these people?
@@yemu8045 this is from season 7, not much of the original cast and characters are in the show any more
These 2 kinda reminded me of Will and Natalie .
In the real world, it is very frowned upon for doctors to say "it'll be alright" before the diagnostics are done. It's why I stopped watching hospital series; they were so bad lol
Yeah they technically not allowed to say it's alright, they trained me that when I did first aid .
The kid's name is Maxwell Jenkins
What Episode and serais is this I forgot this episode!!
What happened to the og actors???
Love maxwell Jenkins
What's a straw pole?
