Hello I wonder if anyone has been through a similar experience.
My Dad was diagnosed with Alzheimers 4 years ago and has been in a relatively good state since the diagnosis he still lives on his own and we look after him on a daily basis managing his bills shopping etc.
He has recently been saying that he doesn't see my sister and her children at all. Although she visits 2 or 3 times a year and is asking me to appoint a solicitor to change his will so he can remove her from it and make myself and my children the sole beneficiaries of his estate. I have started the process but I'm not sure I'm doing the right thing. The solicitor has asked for a Capacity test and we have a doctor who is willing to provide one. I have told my sister who was obviously extremely upset but he is absolutely committed to changing the will. Has anyone been in this situation?
