[quote=Anonymous]Thanks to the PP with all the tips. My parents won't give me any sort of list of bank accounts because they don't want me to know what they have because my husband "might lose his drive if he knows he'll be getting a lot of money". Nonetheless I am expected to take care of their finances once my father goes. My mother begged me to promise never to put her in a home and I have a first floor guest room next to a full bath that I said would be hers. She responded "I don't want to end my life in that tiny room with a view of the neighbor's yard. I was hoping you'd move somewhere waterfront." Thanks mom! She gave me a full written account of what she wants done if she gets dementia (which she sadly had to nurse my grandpa through) which involved a Xanax overdose on a scenic pier. I told her there was no way I could be involved in this without a criminal charge, even if she has a legal document that she wants it. Praying things go smoothly.[/quote]
