[quote=Anonymous]My mom signed a lease on an apartment in independent living today.  She asked me to Zoom into the tour of the apartment and the meeting where she signed in case I had questions.

She also sent me copies of all the paperwork she signed.

One of the papers says I have POA for both health and financial.  Also that she has a DNR and an advanced directive.  This is news to me.  Doesn't it seem like if you are going to pay an attorney to draw up those documents, you'd then let me know about them?  She says that if I need them her attorney will have them, and he's a nice guy who works (general location).  It's like if she said "in one of those tall office buildings around Tysons" except she's in another city.

Obviously, I need to pressure her, but I was very relieved she agreed to move to some place with a little supervision, so I didn't want to push today.  But what things do I need to know.  I need copies of those documents right?

I had assumed my brother was the person she would choose, but she says he doesn't answer the phone so she chose me.

This mostly a vent.[/quote]
