Marie Cooper was a woman of devout faith who believed that life and death should be in God's hands, evident in her long-standing do-not-resuscitate orders.
When Ms. Cooper arrived at the hospital for a routine procedure, a serious misunderstanding occurred, and she was intubated against her explicit wishes, infuriating her daughter.
After regaining consciousness, Ms. Cooper was restrained and terrified, feeling completely violated of her autonomy and desires regarding her medical treatment.
The medical team's actions raised serious ethical concerns, as they not only ignored the patient's clear advance directives but also created an emotionally traumatic experience for the family.
