Parent A is in the hospital. Child A has health care proxy & power of attorney (in addition to being the executor of the will). Child B wants to sue the hospital for malpractice (possible case, though not airtight). Child A doesn't want to sue at all. Does Child B have any right to sue on behalf of Parent A (still living at this point)?

A child cannot sue, so no. And even if they were adults, they couldn't sue either.
