[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, thanks, PP. Estranged sib is financial POA and possibly medical POA , parent says she changed med POA but no one has seen it. Sib has been estranged, from everyone but parent, for decades. The AL seems uncomfortable that sib would not do a call or video meeting, etc.

Yep, lots of dysfunction for decades. Sorry for your own very challenging situation! [/quote]

Is she cognitively fine? If not, you need to see the paperwork. If she is fine, you just let her know how this limits you and technically you cannot even be speaking with the people at AL without her permission I think, not sure. Yes, it's sad the sibling won't even do a call with the AL, but if your mom chose this while cognitively sound and she still is (other than the usual decline that can come with aging), then it's between mom and sibling. Even before the aging mess, I spent years being dragged into situations where I didn't belong. In this situation legally you do not belong in this mess. It can be blessing in disguise.[/quote]
