Wow, I am very sorry and disgusted to hear what you're going through. From my experience, one of the best things you can do is put a lawyer on a small retainer and have them make a call to the hospital and/or doctors involved and make it clear in no uncertain terms that you and your husband value life and that anything suspicious will be investigated fully. No doctor wants their malpractive insurance going up, and hospitals are terrified about their reputations being "marred".

I hope for the best, please keep us apprised of the situation.

Their reputation may well be marred. I'm a newspaper reporter. My husband's a newspaper editor.

Come hell or high water, I'm going to write THE definitive article about NJ hospital practices. But right now, I'd like to save his LIFE.

(and you thought all us media types were lefties, eh?)

Good idea re: the atty, but I can't find one. I'm going to try going through RTL; surely someone in NJ isn't pro-euthanasia!

I agree with sc2, don't be afraid to "bully" the hospital administration with the prospect of appearing in the news as patient killers. These people are either trying to kill your husband or have employees who are doing so without their knowledge. Make it a knife fight if you have to.
