[QUOTE="Andy, post: 194376, member: 5096"] As soon as the banks open tomorrow, you call your mom's banks and ask for their fax number. You fax the legal documents naming you Power of Attorney of Financial and request that ALL your mom's accounts be frozen until further notice. What your sister did was finance the remodeling of her house and not only used your mom's money as a down payment but is using your mom's money to pay it off. I am sure she has no intention of giving the money from sales of your mom's stuff to your mom. That will go into your PA sister's pockets. As the financial person, ALL bills should come through you. Do not let your sister pay anything because I am sure she is not giving you proof of expenses through receipts. You can set up a financial guardian to take care of your mom's finances. Do not let your sister pay this person watching your mom in cash. That scares me because this person is probably not qualified for this job. Your sister should go through an agency to get a liscensed person to sit with your mom. If so, the agency gets paid monthly or weekly or whatever. Anyone accepting cash for this important job sounds very fishy to me. I would fear your mom's safety. Every expense (even co-pays) need a receipt and be paid in check form. Your PA sister is so out of line here that I have a feeling that you will have a legal battle on your hands. Your sister is after your mom's money as well as being after all the siblings money. She is spending everyone's inheritance on herself. It should be spent on your mom. I would refuse (and have siblings refuse also) to pay PA sister anything until she can show proof that the expenses are what she claims. I hate to see families in this situation but you need to get your mom away from your PA sister and it may be that taking her to court for stealing from your mom to do it. I think your mom named your the financial attorney for a reason. She chose your other sister health attorney. That clearly shows her wish for you two to make those decisions. Have you talked to your mom? I have a very bad feeling about the person sitting with her. Please check that out. Don't pay anything else to your PA sister (ask other siblings not to also). Freeze your mom's accounts, get a back ground check on the person accepting cash to watch her ($10/hr/day needs to be submitted to IRS for taxes) and get your mom with you as orginally planned. I am sorry, but it sounds like in order to protect your mom, you are going to have a family war. If not, your PA sister will drain your mom of every penny plus keep increasing what she wants from siblings without justifiying that amount. You have the laws on your side on this. [/QUOTE]
