Medical Malpractice

Medical Law...?

One of my family members that has been living in my house, and we have been taking care of for 7 years, has to have surgery for her hip. The surgeon that she is suppose to have has the worst reputation in the whole state. She wont give us the power of Attourney, but we need to somehow not get the surgery to go through. She has thin blood that does not clot, and this minor surgery might kill her. Please, if you know any way that we can get another surgeon or just cancel the surgery, please tell us, QUICKLY! Thanks.

1. Get a court to rule her mentally incompetent and to appoint you as her guardian.
2. If the person having surgery is of sound mind, talk to her and present the info on the doctor to her. If she is not of sound mind, petition the court for guardianship If she is just stubborn and won't change doctors, it is a bad situation.
