What are the springing documents necessary to trigger POA? Letter from one or two doctors? You need those.

How does the POA read. Mine read when Mom was found incompetent. I did not need anything from the doctor. My POA was always excepted.
A "springing" POA will say that in the wording. Some members say its in effect at the time its signed.
