Even though it may seem that option B would have more long-term benefits, I would still go with A as it is a matter of prolonging a child's life. The hospital's facilities can be improved gradually, but not the child's life.

I would choose option A As far as I can see it's more transparent in A where the money is being donated Time will be invaluable for the child The donation is more impactful here

Negotiation is an important life skill

We negotiate most of our waking hours. We negotiate with our team members, colleagues, bosses and vendors at work, with our kids, spouse and parents at home. We negotiate during buying or selling of an asset e.g. house, car and also conflict resolution and during salary negotiations. Negotiation is an important life skill and it contributes to our success.

If we do not negotiate well or don’t negotiate at all then there is a big chance that we are going to leave money on the table, which could have been ours. We often don’t negotiate because we feel it is inappropriate or feel uncomfortable and fear it.

“You don't get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate.” Chester Karrass
