I would have answered that the injured person was the father, not the son, and the doctor was his father (and the boy's grandfather) – James Douglas Mar 09 '19 at 11:20

The doctor is
a woman, mother of the boy. Is this a special-March 8 puzzle?

I know this is a joke answer, but would this stop the surgeon from operating? – ZanyG Mar 08 '19 at 09:44

not a joke. Surgeon will stop operating out of affection she has for her child. It ll be a bittersweet surgery – azhagan Jul 10 '19 at 05:14
