Tod gave up on waiting for a cure and made the choice to leave his safe isolation and enter the outside world even though it would mean his certain deathyes?
Interesting because the movie was made while David was still a little boy, living inside his bubble. He made the choice to do the same as Tod, with the difference being David had a bone marrow transplant, an attempt at a cure giving him hope he could come outside the isolation. He didn't want to remain inside anymore, I think he and his parents knew it was a gamble. They were all willing to try.
In the movie, it seems like Tod came to the same conclusion.
