Indiana, I am durable POA for my 88 yr old Aunt. She has signs of dementia but, not taking pills for dementia. With that said, she is legally compatent to do what she desires until told by a doctor incompatent.
How can I remove my DPOA? Is there an Indiana form I need to fill out and have notirized? Where can I find this form I need to do this ? Is it downloadible online?
My Aunt is 88 yrs old. Refuses to spend a dime of her money on here needs. I don't have the money to spend out of my own pocket anymore. I'm done spending my money. She has the money to spend but,refuses to spend a dime for her self on her needs. I am tired of differing with her thinking of how she spends her money. She refuses to spend a dime of her money on her needs but, want's things handed to her for free. She tells me to go to hell all the time. She's very hateful and always was a rich, spolied, hateful person all her life. I came into her life to help her because, she asked me to. Her attorney told me that he felt she needed a POA. I agreed.
What I found by this DPOA is, I'm not allowed to spend her funds to help her without her permission. And she refuses to spend a dime of her money. She lives alone in her home and she's on Medicare. She refuses, Hateful to us and she feels she is compatent. I can't help someone that is not willing to help them self. And why in the world would anyone help a person that tells them to go to hell? I'm not wanted. I'm not needed and I can't do my job as DPOA anymore. I want to remove my DPOA. How do I do this?
Because, my Aunt is legally compatent as we speak. I shouldn't have to assign another POA in order for me to remove my DPOA. I was told you only need to reassign another POA if the client is incompatent. My Aunt is still legally compatent. How do I remove this DPOA please?
Dogabone, while your aunt is considered competent the DPOA is not in force and you should be able to resign it without difficulty. Follow PS's excellent advice; and by all means notify your local social services.
I seem to remember that you've got a bit of a history with this aunt, though. You sure you're not going to change your mind when she really does need help?
