Hi
This is my first post here but I've been reading for a while as my mum is now in later stages VD.
A hit of background... We have recently had to have some respite as my dad, the main caregiver, had a heart attack. The respite has become permanent.
I have LPA for both health and finances and we have recently been awarded with DOLS and I have been appointed RPR as my mum is now lacking capacity.
We have some family members who we have not seen, heard from in near on 15 years after a big family fall out. They have been aware of my mums diagnosis for the last 4 years but havent made contact. Now mum is in a care home they are all coming out of the woodwork. In a conversation with my mum shortly after diagnosis she stated she didnt want any involvement with them and we weren't to allow them to see her if she ever lost capacity etc.
Do I have a legal leg to stand on in stopping these people?
