Well the thing is, if you are filthy rich and have such resources at your disposal, what is terminal for one person doesn't have to be terminal to another. Medical science has come a long way, alas capitalism has ensured the best stuff is only available for the richest.
You might say hur dur I live in EU land and we have (almost) free top of the line healthcare. Yes, that's true, hello fellow EU healthcare enjoyer. A close relative of mine still died while on a waiting list, as there were more patients than treatment options available. I'm not saying if they were rich they would have cut in line, but it does happen.
Rich people get treatments that aren't even available to people on public health schemes like you.
They can and will pay for unapproved treatments that no one covers yet because they're still experimental.
and sometimes the experimental treatments just let you in because they're insanely dangerous.
