[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you for all the feedback and advice. If Grandma gets to the point where she can no longer make decisions and is declared incompetent guardianship MUST be awarded to someone, correct? Do family members apply for that? Can there be multiple guardians? [/quote] It takes two doctors to certify that a person is incompetent in MD. Many people who are incompetent are never actually declared incompetent because no one asks for the opinions required. Not everyone who's incompetent gets a guardian appointed but people who seem an opinion regarding competency typically pursue giardianship. Usually next of kin makes decisions. Guardians are only appointed by a court and so someone has to institute court proceedings. Sometimes families don't want guardianship or to make decisions. [/quote]
