Doctors fail to find cure
John was slowly dying because the doctor could not find a cure. The doctors failed to cure him, and told him he had only a few more days. The medical community was not familiar with this type of disease, so it wasn’t possible to help him. His disease is still incurable. He made the most of his limited time, even though it was short. The doctors also told his family, with a heavy heart to do the exact same thing.
