[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Condolences to you. You had not seen your parents since 2019? Everyday calls don’t cut it. You’re a virtual stranger to your mother if she is truly declining. She’s grieving. You need to figure out a way to connect with her— calm and reassure her that you respect her space. Set a date and time for your return. Writr it on a memo pad with names and phone numbers of those who will check in on her. Make sure your contact info is listed first. Gather relevant paperwork and a to do list to tackle at home. This may be a long journey. She’s physically able to manage the home. Routine is comforting for her. Would she be willing to accept a social worker/aid for a few hours a week? She needs an in home evaluation. If you’re not named POA or medical proxy, you’ve got work to do. Call her daily and remind her of date/time you’ll return. [/quote] Since OP is an only child, why is a POA necessary? [/quote]
