My Mom has taken care of my grandma for awhile. My Aunt wanted mammaw to come stay with her a couple of weeks. While she was with her my aunt obtained a power of attorney and now is putting my mammaw in a nursing home. My mom wants to take care of mammaw, but my aunt told her she no say in it bc she is power of attorney. Is there anything we can do. We cant stand the thought of her in a nursing home when she has a daughter that willing to take care of her. Thank you for any help.
The first thing you should try to do is get a copy of the POA to determine the type of POA and the legality of it (was it correctly executed, notarized, etc.).
Good Luck.
what an ugly mess and sneaky aunt. i am shcoked at what people are capable of doing, my sister included. i read so many of these kinds of stories.
Florida is a particularly bad place for the elderly.
And guardianship, while supposedly a good thing, has become an evil creeping aceoss the country.
Unethical Guardians appointed to protect the individual and conserve their assets and proeprty, will milk the estate for their own benefit. See
