My grandfather passed a year ago today thanks to medical malpractice. 
Oh no, I am so sorry to hear that. That must be so hard. How have you been coping?
One step at a time basically, I hate he couldn't get a good doctor but that was "the best the VA could do"
Oh wow, that is so sad. Have you contacted an attorney?
No, they covered their butts really well with paperwork. It wasn't worth it sadly.
