University Hospital

Kelley was admitted to University Hospital as an emergency heart transplant patient. The next day, the hospital's business manager discussed the cost of the surgery with Kelley's two sons. Both sons told the manager, "Do whatever is necessary to save his life, and we will pay you."

When the hospital presented the staggering bill to the junior Kelleys, they said the contract was oral and, therefore, they were not liable.

 Is it true? Explain.What type of contract/promise was formed?
