It really just amazes me just how cruel "family" can be. My father was in the hospital again and is now in a rehab, until he is strong enough to be placed elsewhere. While In IN, I was the one staying all night with dad, leaving just to take a shower then going back because my dad was scared of my brother! I told dad not to be scared but then my brother physically attacked ME. I called 911. After calling 911 NOTHING HAPPENED. Found out from my brothers boss, he has been threatening to hurt me! Scared to stay at dads condo so I started staying at hotels, my family is Military and is in Florida. Called the Police back about the text from my brothers Boss and they STILL DID NOTHING. Now because of my brother and dads family.....I left IN and came back to FL. I was chased away!!
This should be about Dad and what dad wants, but these idiots are playing games. I love my dad and I will go back. They can hurt me and scare me but you only have one father! They are after his money and nothing more. I refuse to allow dads wishes to be changed in any way! dads POA, locked me out of his condo and my belongings were in it!! His POA does not have that authority....
You see, Once You have knowlege of a situation, particularly a Harmful one, whether it be emotional or physically, YOU ARE NOW RESPONSIBLE for Reporting it! And if one agency, or in this case a 911 doesn't take you seriously, You have the Responsibility to find a Place or a Person that will! And,
the Coalition for Violence will listen. And then You HAVE to Call Ombudsman to also explain and to Protect your father, emotionally, physically, as well as
financially. But "I" would first Start with the Coalition against Violence for Women first, if that were me. It would allow me to Finally "Vent" with People I
could Trust, and those who would FINALLY "Believe" me!! And 'that,' is what YOU need right now too! You can't go on like this and your brother is nothing but a BULLY and the longer you wait on this, the Longer You, as well as your Dad, will continue to be Bullied. Once again, knowing this, YOU now have the RESPONSIBILITY of doing this Now! Please keep us updated!
I wish you luck...I just have had so many other things to deal with, along with this situation, that I was beginning to get sick, depressed, etc. I'm sure I will have to revisit all of this again because as long as my mom is alive they will create drama.
I can pass a background test, easily. I worked as Grant Administrator and Police Accreditation Specialist for many years. Had to pass extensive background to be considered for employment.
This week has been very tough. I too decided that I would just let it go and just stay away, since I seem to be the cause of all the drama! However; that will not fly with me. I am my father's only advocate! My adopted brother is the cause of ALL THE PROBLEMS, BUT MY 63YEAR OLD UNCLE HAS ALLOWED MY BROTHER TO EFFECT MY UNCLE'S JUDGEMENT!
I was not even given a chance, and that is pathetic. Instead of just giving up and staying away...I am looking for a GREAT ATTY! I want to get custody/guardianship of dad and take care of him from here on out. My dad is all I have left and I know that it is going to be difficult, but I am up for the challenge! I have seen him at his worst and his best. But regardless, he is my dad!! My husband maybe retiring in a couple years, Command list comes out this week. So after 25 years..... This is one for household six!!
I had to research and find the right Elder Care Atty and agencies to help. This also means, protecting yourself from backlash from the not so nice "family" involved bc they will come after you out of their own greed.
Try to find, one person, agency, that will show you compassion and help you set things right for your Dad.
I do not want to cause problems.....I just want to see and spend time with my dad!
I was locked in my car and the Officers' never came back to talk with me.
My father has Dementia and I am usually the one that takes care of him. My Uncle , the POA has been talking to my father about how he does not like me. Ironically, I have not spent time with him for 17 years. I have been married , raising my own family and being a military spouse. That family never gave me a chance and I have been so hurt by them and their actions.
I'm sorry you are going through this.
