The Hospital didn’t fight it very hard
I’m not sure how the hospital can fight this. If they try to thwart the husband’s wishes, they lose in court, and probably in the court of public opinion. If they follow the law as interpreted by the court, they obviously lose in the court of public opinion.
How can they fight this and not damage themselves?
Wasn’t it the hospital that took the adversarial position to the husband and wanted to keep his wife on life support?
