If anyone out there can help me with suggestions or advice....My father has been diagonsed with dementia, and his wife has sold his house that was to be saved until he needed medical retirment funds as his dementia is get worse monthly. My Dad's atterney had told both my father and his wife they were not to sell the house and that "we" his 5 kids wanted it to be saved for his future need, i.e. if we have to sell it to pay for his care and special housing needs in the future. The house which was part of my family's trust, and did not include my dad's new wife. The trust was being rewritten by my dad's atterney who's been working on it for one year already. There were questions about appointing new trustees for our family trust and this finally was done through my determination, two months ago, yet the papers were still not signed as of the 14th of June 2004.
During this period of time that the lawer had been working on this trust but not quite finished the paper work, my dad's wife convinced my dad that it was ok to sell this house and there for my dad signed the papers. He can not remember any details about the selling of the house or the realitors that were used. He is not able to reason for himself as to if it was a wise thing for him to have sold his only asset.
Can anyone give me any advice?
Thank you,
