Lawyers here... FiL in ICU and his wife saying his kids can't come see him?

[Chock Full o Nuts]

Wife called a few ago with the info. Flu A believe she said, and has COPD and asthma.

They live a couple hours away, and she's a straight ****. She's got shit ****** up.

If I understand correctly, being spouse, she over-rides all, correct? But this is his children, and they've only been married a few years after his previous wife passed.

What, if anything can be done? This bitch needs to rot in hell.

AFAIK, you can't visit with someone in the ICU.

If I remember right when my FIL was in the ICU all the kids and grandkids got to visit, even me the DIL.

But every hospital is different. I'd check with them directly if you feel the new spouse is being shady.

Not sure, but it's the fact she is saying no one can come period.
Straight bullshit.

Wife will be making some calls when she's done working in a few. She is shady, and has been.

Unfortunately, as the spouse, she probably has the law on her side, especially if she has medical power of attorney. She gets to say who has access.

Sadly, likely the case. She has pulled some bullshit in the past, and none of wife's family can stand her. But this takes the cake.

Wife just called with update. He is at a hospital where wife's aunt is a nurse. She's going to get info. Apparently 1 or 2 can go into ICU to see him.

Aunt talked to this bitch and she had the gall to tell her that she is his wife, and knows him better than anyone, so out of respect.....?

His wife of a few years(though believe they go further back) knows him better than his own sister?

She's got shit real ****** up!

Sorry y'all have to deal with this. Is he conscience? Seems like if he is, he could speak for himself? Wishing you and your wife the best...

Do believe so. Aunt supposed to get the scoop. So yeah, if yes, is his call.
Apparently, already been there 24-48 hours, and family/kids just getting word?.... Straight up bullshit.
