Hello,
I'm a new member, my stepdad went into care with dementia in July. Mum is in another care home since October with mixed dementia, I am house sitting for them, the rest of the family are in Canada, which might as well be The Moon with the covid situation. They have no Lasting Powers of Attorney, so The Court of Protection will be involved. The stress of the situation is awful, I've always been prone to anxiety, and now I have to deal with this at age 65, coming to terms with losing Mum and Dad is bad enough, but the beaurocracy is overwhelming.
