I feel desperately sorry for them all - although the medics are not acting maliciously either - they don't want him to suffer and believe they can't help him futher

This is very much the same as the last similar case though; that time doctors in America, pioneering treatments, making huge promises... It all turned out to be insubstantial.

Yeah, I know that. I was just making the distinction as Adam seemed to think they wanted to remove him from his life support to take him home but that isn't the case at the moment.

Heartbreaking for all

That was one instance, you can't gauge all attempts the same due to one failed treatment.
The point is they and others are willing to try.
