Take a vote from each family member. "While there is life, there is hope" with the fragile 1% hope of survival that might smile upon us. And we decided to take the last measures to save you.

Every hour that passes is heavy and difficult. I know I need to be strong and be a support for you, give you positive energy, but sometimes I still can't help but cry. I know you trust and appreciate me very much, and I have tried very hard, do you know that!? We have tried very hard."
