PER CURIAM:
Yolanda Bell appeals the district court’s order denying relief on her civil action
challenging the health care decisions made by Appellees on behalf of Bell’s incapacitated
adult sister. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we
grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis and affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. Bell v. Heishman, No. 1:17-cv-00430-AJT-TCB (E.D. Va. Oct. 3, 2017). We
dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately
presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
