The answer

There is nothing upon you, because death by pressure on the umbilical cord or its entanglement is neither certain nor an action on your part. You are not obliged to seek medical treatment or hospitalization. Your refusal of the surgery is not considered a dereliction of his life or a cause of his death, and the default is the exoneration of one's liability.
