hello
We are in a difficult situation, we are caring for my sons Nan along with our son his brother and their wives, between the 6 of us we are meeting all her care needs in her own home. She has two estranged daughters who are absolutely evil there is no other word for them, they have been bullying their mother and late father for years for money. They don’t work they think that their parents should be financially responsible for them they are 51 and 49 respectively, my son and his brothers father died a number of years ago. My sons grandfather died 2 months ago and his Nan was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s 6 months ago. Her daughters have the attitude that anyone with Alzheimer’s or dementia automatically have no rights and no capacity. My sons Nan stayed in my sons home just after his grandfather died and as soon as he passed away they came to the house demanding the keys to the Nans properties and cars, my sons Nan threw them out of the house and told them she didn’t want to see them again.
Well the upshot is that they have got a solicitor involved as they want the money they are entitled to from their dads estate(as he didn’t leave a will) they are assuming that their Mother has not got capacity to spontaneously administrators so she had to have a capacity test which she passed so the estate can be sorted, but what they also want is control of their mother so they can take her money, but my son and his brother have got an LPA they did that straight after the incident at his house and again their Nan had to have a capacity test which she passed. They have also got their solicitor to report to social services that we are all holding their mother against her will and stopping her from seeing them. Their Nan has told her solicitor that she doesn’t want to see them, and she keeps saying to us keep them away from me, she is scared of them. Well we have now been contacted by Social Services to say that they have to visit because they have had a complaint. Do we have to comply and let them visit and surely my sons Nan has a right to know why they are coming and should have a choice as to whether or not she wants to see them. It’s a nightmare situation all fueled by greed by two individuals who have never cared about their parents, can I have your advise on this please.
