[quote=Anonymous]A distant relative recently had a stroke and is currently in the hospital. Her new husband of 2 years is acting completely crazy and blocking the family from receiving any information about her health, not allowing people to see her and generally creating chaos and anger. She is now recovering and not incapacitated, but the family would prefer not to bring all of this drama to her while she is recovering.

The family has already received a signed medical POA, but I don't believe those will mean much unless she is incapacitated and cannot make her own decisions.

Just today her family learned that is the controlling her phone, essentially cutting off communication with her family when they are not in the room with her.

Is there anything that can be done (legally or otherwise) to make him stop acting crazy, ignoring her family and cutting her off from everyone. There is concern that some of the "advice" he is putting into her ear may not be the best for her health. The family has known her and her medical situation for her whole life, whereas he has known her for a few years.[/quote]
