I use my mom's POA to make sure she uses her money well and is living well. Well, I guess I cared too much and tried to find her temporary nursing home placement so she could get PT and OT so she could live AT HOME more independently.
Anyways, she hired a lawyer to revoke my POA. She is too sharp to be deemed incompetent or to get guardianship, and I do not want guardianship or conservatorship. Should I be scared that I'm going to have to clean up a big mess later, or should I let her fall down the rabbit hole of financial ruin until she comes crying for my help again?
The idea of being free from all this POA responsibility doesn't make me feel good knowing my mom is just going to screw herself over.
Mind you my mom hasn't managed her own finances in over a year, relied on me to find her a new apartment, AND just told me a few days ago that she appreciates all I've done.
OH and I surrendered an internship to move home and be closer to her. And now I'm stuck here with a 1 year lease.
There will be others chiming in.
