There isn't much you can do for a kid with kidney failure besides dialysis and wait for a transplant. My friend's sister was on the list for months and got sicker the whole time. None of her family was a match but thankfully they found one. Dad goes to Mom's house and sees his sick kid with kidney disease and blames the Mom and not the disease, and has made it clear he had no idea how the disease was managed or what the kid needed. They don't really say how long the kid was missing, like if the Dad was hiding the kid for a while but he got sicker, or if the Dad immediately drove the kid to the hospital because he didn't think the Mom was doing enough, but considering the BOLO was already out, I wouldn't be surprised if the Dad intended to hide and keep the kid permanently but he missed some medication or was given food high in salt that would have made his condition deteriorate even more, then Dad panicked. The only thing I see that is definitely the Mom's fault is not getting the Dad tested as donor but she may have been prevented from doing that while he was incarcerated, and before he was kidnapped the kid might not have been sick enough it was an immediate concern. They don't say why the Dad was incarcerated but even if it was low-level/nonviolent, the mom may still have a good reason for wanting an unstable and infrequent presence out of her sons life. Also, I have a bunch of relatives in healthcare and they've told me stories of family, usually Dads or Grandmothers, who decide that a chronically ill kid's disease can't really be that bad (Kid or Mom or Doctor must be exaggerating) and the treatment is what is actually making them sick, so they find a way to stop it by skipping a kid's doses/appointments, or they impose their own "treatment", and then they're shocked that kid gets way worse very quickly, so maybe I'm biased when I see one parent did the lionshare of caregiving and the other has no idea what to do but still thinks they will do it better. It's like the opposite of munchausen by proxy.

Kidneys don't heal back, unlike the liver, where if you donate a section of it, that section will grow back, while the section that got donated will grow into a full liver. Kidneys can't be sectioned off, each individual is born with two, and they play a role in body by converting unusable and toxic materials into urine. If you lose one, you have to watch what you eat, and losing the other means death unless you find a donor. With all that, I'd say liver surgery might be safer.

The father was willing to give up a kidney to save his son and because of some stupid statistic the head lady wouldn't let him. He shot himself because he knew the hospital could use his organs if he was dead. Even if he wasn't a great father, that little boy lost his dad over something stupid.

I love that movie

Now that’s what a parent should do to make sure their children make it and as for the hospital putting stats over a child makes me sick if they would have done the transplant both would have been alright

so did the father kill himself? couldnt he donate after he died?

Yes. They did take his kidney afterwards for his son.

Some hospitals are messed up

That was hard to watch.

Always the voice of reason

Did they cut the video because the dad shot himself in the head?

hospitals shouldn’t be treated like a place of business, it’s a place for patients to be treated and cured for their sicknesses

Reminds me of criminal minds when the father dies to give his daughter lungs

Why didn’t the mother bring him to the hospital?

You be okay 👍

"we dont know what this man is capable of" me: he is capable of the ultimate sacrifice

"There's a BOLO out for his arrest". "A BE ON THE LOOKOUT?" 😅😅😅

Law and judgement is nothing if you don't include love and ethics.

I cried again aggggg 😢😢😢😢

She didn't learned a damn thing at the end. I hate these type of people with a passion

This is the saddest episode.

He wants to save his son

Ah yes, the American healthcare system at work.

Love of a father is amazing and this is why if you separate from the mother or father don't be petty! Your only hurting your child and had he been given the transplant instead of the bs they pulled all over where he would be after the surgery. I'm sure the mom would have seen what he did for the son and saved his life they could have convinced her to drop any charges and they both could have lived!

dunno about that last part, did she EVER show up? her son had been kidnapped, was terminally ill and actively dying in a hospital bed, in all the time it took them to call the cops, arrest the dad, hold him in the trauma bay, test for a donor match, bicker over the transplant and finally off himself and successfully transplant his kidney into his son, not once did we see a glimpse of the mother.

She deserves to get arrested

7:45 i was completely serious until this part when I thought what’s she thinking and then got serious again

9:09 true, but in this case the decision was wrong.

Bureaucracy. The number of times the words 'state' and 'our' is used should raise a lot of flags. But it wont

What’s that supposed to mean? Legitimate question.

What’s ironic is that she ruined the hospital’s reputation anyway for not doing the surgery and letting a father trying to save his son die on their watch. This is villainy on a whole other level.

I believe that the father truly cares for his child and is going through a very difficult patch with his family. Unfortunately, hospital business is a very difficult and somewhat complicated thing when it comes with legal obligations such as calling the police and stuff.

So sad 😢

Aw damn.

I wish I could visit them

That is so freaking sad. I feel bad because his dad is gonna go to jail because his dad dad is kidnapped somebody’s child, so I feel so sad for him because he needs somebody to donate his kidney because he updated if they don’t do that he could die.❤❤❤🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭

Were is the mom,like saying the dad’s a bad guy but the mom didn’t even show up for her sick son
