My Dad Died

So September 24th my dad went to urgent care because he couldn’t lay down without coughing and was in so much pain through his back. When he got there they said he had a cold, gave him cough medicine and a muscle relaxer because they said he pulled a muscle in his back.

2 days later he went to the hospital. Immediately diagnosed with pneumonia. They ran blood tests and they said they were concerned he had leukemia due to his blood counts. My dad went for blood work every 3-6 months since 2021 due to a heart attack in January 2021. They were always almost perfect.

They transferred him to the state hospital, diagnosed him with CLL (chronic lymph node leukemia) and told him he should be okay with this cancer. He was in that hospital for 8 days while recovering from pneumonia. They pushed back his biopsy multiple times, he never received one.

During his hospital stay they lost power for 4 hours, the morning his biopsy was scheduled, they obviously pushed it back. No generators for him and his room. After 8 days they said he looked good, had an appointment with an oncologist the following week to schedule an outpatient biopsy and he was good to leave.

He got out and looked good, he got tired very quickly, lost a lot of weight in the hospital but he was able to go to lunch with me. 3 days later I was supposed to take him to the oncologist, instead I took him to the ER.

He passed 6 hours later. His white blood cell count was over 350,000, his organs shut down and he ultimately passed from sepsis.

I feel like the doctors had to have missed something or did something wrong. My friends and family think the same. My mom chose not to do an autopsy.

He was 56, he passed on October 7th.

Is there anything we can do? Can we prove they did something wrong? Would it even matter in the long run?
