She's not suing the relatives. She's suing the estate. If the kid died 
penniless, the relatives aren't responsible for the costs. It just means it 
comes out of the money the relatives *would* have inherited if the kid 
didn't injure the woman while he was still alive.

Given that the healthcare system of the US is fucked, it's not unreasonable 
for the woman to sue the kid's insurance company to get her medical expenses 
paid.
