The nurse informed me that my child Mr. [NAME] is diagnosed with a cyst on his optic nerve, and it needs to be removed immediately or else my child can lose his eyesight. Moreover, she told me the process of removing the cyst will be nasal and anesthesia, blood transfusion, and some other medical procedures are to be used for which my written signed consent is required.
