She was DNR so we didn't have to make decision to pull plug. Plus them machines alarm when you cough never mind choke to death to be brought back brain dead.

Deepest Sympathies for your loss. If you believe the medical providers breached their standard of care, make arrangements to meet with an attorney specializing in medical malpractice to do a complete evaluation.

Since she was on a respirator and probably nearing her last days, damages may not justify a malpractice action but have the records and imaging studies reviewed by local malpractice counsel who will get expert to review same and opine if there was a departure from accepted standards of practice and if there was, did that departure cause injury. If the answer is yes and the injuries warrant you will have found legal representation. These cases are normally taken on a contingency basis. Use find a lawyer feature to locate local counsel.
