More details to this question:
My mother recently passed (1/14/2015) and my father and I believe it was negligence on the primary physician's part. She was on oxygen, had sleep apnea, and pain throughout her body. We believe the doctor did not read her past medical history properly , that's why he prescribed her Hydrocodone for her pain . But it unfortunately slowed down her breathing and killed her the very next day. We honestly believe that it was a medication error and failure to diagnose. But she was on disability , which was her only income, but my father/her husband is just trying to find out if he can do something about it..

You may have a case worth pursuing. It depends, however, on a few additional facts. How long had the doctor been treating your mother? Did the hospital give a reason or identify a cause for her death? Was she receiving any other type of medication?
