He is very ill and my aunt and cousin take advantage of him... They use him for his money take it all away God knows what they do with it and he's scared to let me known what's going on behind closed doors, but he shouldn't be. I am very worried about him because we are close and I wanna take full charge and custody of him. My aunt and cousin have taken over him and brain washed him and I feel that they hit him and tell him stuff to scare him to not say anything. So what can I do it's been sleepless nights for me worrying about my grandpa who I truly love.
I am so sorry about what is happening to your grandfather at the hands of your aunt and cousin.
I know you a very worried about him and that you are having difficulty not being able to sleep due to not knowing how to help him.
Please contact Adult Protective Services (APS) in the state your grandfather resides in. You can get their phone number by calling 1-800-677-1116. APS is for suspicion of abuse, neglect or exploitation.
Your grandfather is very lucky to have someone like you who is looking out for his well being and who truly loves him.
I wish you the best and hope you will please update us!
Is he competent? If he suffers from dementia, I’d be careful to double check what he’s saying. Sometimes, people with dementia have delusions and say things that are not true. If he’s being mistreated, he needs help. That’s for sure.
