Generally, if both parents are deceased the siblings or issue of any deceased siblings would be next of kin. If there are no siblings or issue of siblings the next of kin would be collateral kindred and that can get more complicated. There are charts that show how to determine collateral kin and the state laws of intestacy control who inherits in an intestate estate. You can see more at the links provided below.

The standard of intestate succession would say that the daughter would inherit the estate unless the will says otherwise. Generally however, minor children cannot be disinherited by will.

If you are speaking of the relative or relatives entitled to share in your property if you die intestate (without a will) then if you are unmarried your parents are your next of kin.

When daughter has power of attorney over her mother does this make her next of kin before her dad who is only separated from his wife by her illness?

If the POA is Durable and granted the right to make medical decisions then the daughter can make those decisions. Her power would take precedence over that of her father as the spouse. When a person dies the POA is immediately extinguished and the husband would be the legal next of kin for decisions regarding the burial arrangements.
