Mom was diagnosed a year and a half ago. She needed a POA then but we think her husband convinced her she would lose all control. Now she doesn’t have any ability to see that her spending is way more than her income. Has anyone gotten letters of incompetence from the doctors to get a POA, and if so, what consequences were there from your loved one? Mom can’t really pay her bills on her own, but sure knows how to use the credit card..lol. Thanks for any suggestions...
She moved in with us last year in September but, none of the other siblings had the courage to do it. Once we receive the letters from the other family members we are going to let her read them and proceed with the doctors and 911 documents as well.
We are prepared for a negative reaction but, are also praying that once she reads what the others have stated she will allow us to help find her a facility.
To respond to your question, he set-up all of her bills online for him copay for her and she has a bank card for small purchases with a limit.
