Understand something very important here. Even if there was malpractice (and there are not enough facts in your post to make that determination) all you may sue for is the actual damages your child suffered from the harm. You cannot win anything for what MIGHT have happened. So the fact (if true) that your daughter MIGHT have died gets you nothing. What actual harm was suffered? Did your daughter suffer any permanent injury/disability from it? Did you have to pay extra medical bills from this that you would not otherwise have had to pay if the alleged malpractice did not occur? If the episode, as severe as it was, was temporary and your daughter suffered no permanent harm then all you are left to pursue is whatever extra medical costs you had out of this. If your military health benefits or other health insurance paid for it all then there may be nothing worth suing for.
