Legal Question in Family Law in Ohio

medical POA

My mother is 83 and has the onset of dimencia. My sister and I had a medical POA for her, and then one day she called us and said she had changed that and given it to her lawyer. Now, she is in the hospital and we are being told we have no rights to any of her medical decisions. Is there anything we can do?
