As mentioned, chemo sent her to ICU. Is forcing her to take chemo and going into ICU not harm as well? So either way they should have been found criminally negligent and subjected to a lifetime of torment?

And rightly or wrongly, they blame the chemo for the stroke that killed her. So in their opinion putting her on chemo is what harmed her and killed her. Should they be criminally charged if chemo was in fact the cause of the stroke?

I don't really know where I stand on this as it's more complex than I think most people are making it out to be. But at the very least they attempted the chemo. It's not like they refused it right off the bat.
