The Court of Protection has no procedure for the protection
of the Donor. This is no protection for any elderly person with Alzheimer’s.
The Court heard our objections, then decided who will be in control of finances.
I asked the Court what about Health decisions. Can you register me as the one responsible for the well fare of My Mother as I differ greatly with the EPA on what is comfort and what makes my Mother feel better.
The answer I received was a flat ‘No’.
So, when a Ct-Scan is suggested by a Doctor, but the Health Board see’s this as over and above what they will pay. The EPA can say ‘Don’t go ahead with any Ct-Scan.’
My Mother has more than enough money to pay for this, My Mother worked all Her life, and now She cannot make these decisions for Her self, There is no-one to speak for Her well-being.
This is grossly unfair. Can anyone suggest where I go from here.
Many thanks for listening,
Maggie.
