the similarity that I can visualize in the text both died according to the text if the doctor were not dead I think the family would have made their own decisions to kill him because her death was too cruel and unfortunate for the family since it was a uterine cancer case tells us page 3 and 7
this means that both are dead and according to the information based on the text the doctor left the cells in the clinic.

She was a fighter because she was in an
operation and she got over it and was able
to do it and
Henrietta went straight to the admissions desk and told the receptionist she was there for her treatment. Then she signed a form with the words OPERATION PERMIT at the top of the page. It said and the doctor was very brave to do this operation because he risked his life for the operation and ended up dying The morning of Henrietta’s first treatment, a taxi driver picked up a doctor’s bag filled with thin glass tubes of radium from a clinic across town. The tubes were tucked into individual slots inside small canvas pouches hand-sewn by a local Baltimore woman. The pouches were called Brack plaques, after the Hopkins doctor who invented them and oversaw Henrietta’s radium treatment. He would later die of cancer, most likely caused by his regular exposure to radium, as would a resident who traveled with Kelly and also transported radium in his pockets.

One nurse placed the Brack plaques on a stainless-steel tray. Another wheeled Henrietta into the small colored-only operating room on the second floor, with stainless-steel tables, huge glaring lights, and an all-white medical staff dressed in white gowns, hats, masks, and gloves and It was similar with the doctor because he had the same disease as her .

There’s a photo on my wall of a woman I’ve never met, its left corner torn and patched together with tape. She looks straight into the camera and smiles, hands on hips, dress suit neatly pressed, lips painted deep red. It’s the late 1940s and she hasn’t yet reached the age of thirty. Her light brown skin is smooth, her eyes still young and playful, oblivious to the tumor growing inside her—a tumor that would leave her five children motherless and change the future of medicine. Beneath the photo, a caption says her name is “Henrietta Lacks, Helen Lane or Helen Larson.”

Henrietta lacks is a black women dedicated and selfless, according to the text "Henrietta didn’t tell anyone what Jones said, and no one asked. She simply went on with her day as if nothing had happened, which was just like her", she said: "no sense upsetting anyone over something she could deal with herself". This means that she did not want to worry her loved ones with something that she supposed she could face "alone".

Dr. Gey is a white man that study but despite that he did not respect the integrity and rights of black people According to the text "Many scientists believed that since patients were treated for free in the public wards, it was fair to use them as research subjects as a form of payment".

They are different because Despite the fact that Henrietta Lacks was a woman who did not study, she was a woman of good values, on the other hand, Dr. Gey, a studied person, did not mind experimenting with black patients without their consent.

And it is that Dr. Gray was able to have a good education because he had money and his economic status was good.
