I have POA of Mom.I let her go visit son if while there he filed for Guardianship Mom has lived with me 3 years, What can I do? My brother wanted to visit with Mom so my sister came to fly with her. Turns out it was planned and now her will not let me bring her home, He works out of state most of the time so Mom will be left in care of his wife or strangers, I dont want Mom with basically stranger as her ALZ is progressing
Is her dementia at the point where she cannot make a sound decision?
Has a doctor ever evaluated her as incompetent?
I'm not sure exactly what your durable and medical POA would authorize you to do in this situation?
Have you had the chance to talk with your mother on the phone? Would it be possible for you to go visit her?
If your brother files for guardianship, he must first be able to prove with the testimony of two doctors that she is not competent. You can go to court and protest his claim for guardianship and request that you become his guardian, but I would get my own lawyer to do that.
