"The patient, Mr. Veston, listed both of you as his emergency contacts and legal guardians," the doctor informed Cammy and Greg, his voice grave as he handed over a waiver. "This was signed and witnessed by his attorney right before he was brought into surgery."
He took a deep breath before continuing, "He's in critical condition. The gunshot was at extremely close range and caused significant internal damage—multiple organs were hit. He's already lost a lot of blood and will likely require additional transfusions and possibly more surgeries. We need your consent now if we're going to proceed."
The nurse beside him stepped forward with the documents. Without hesitation, Cammy reached out, her hands trembling as she grabbed the clipboard.
"Don't wait. Do whatever it takes to save him. You have our full consent," she said firmly, tight with emotion as she quickly scribbled her signature.
