Surrogates Replaced with Guardians Fight Back

In the United States as in Canada, surrogate decision makers who demand treatment that healthcare providers judge medically inappropriate are sometimes replaced with court-appointed guardians.  Interestingly, in the past weeks, some of those displaced surrogates have been turning around to challenge the decisions of the guardians, just as their own decisions were earlier challenged.  One case is the long-running Gary Harvey case in New York.  Another is the Rachel Nyirahabiyambere case outside Washington, DC.
