My mother went into a nursing home and has Alzheimer's. I am her POA and have a lot to do because I have to apply for financial aid for her, and any thing else that comes up. My siblings leave everything to me since I am POA. It is too much. I have a job and a family, too. I do not live near her. I am constantly handling issues after work and think about it all the time. I am in the middle of the application process for her to pay for nursing home. I have told my siblings I am very stressed and cannot do it all myself. They just say
"Oh, take care of yourself." and basically blow me off. I know they are just glad to have me deal with it all. Any advice?
My advice is, if it got dumped on you, dump it back. Whenever there is too much on my plate, I take some stuff off. You have to reduce your load yourself.
The only possible suggestion I have , if you have to spend down, would you be able to hire an attorney/consultant to help with the application process. Good luck
