[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you get power of attorney/guardianship?[/quote] OP here. I've done guardianship cases before, and honestly, I'm not sure we'd win this one (and we'd permanently infuriate MIL). Given how she lives it is questionable whether she is competent. It is clear she's not able to care for herself. But she's smart, and certainly does not have memory loss or confusion or anything else that would more typically be recognized as lacking competence. If worst comes to worst that may be a route we'd pursue, but that would be the definition of burning bridges with her. That's something I'm trying to avoid if at all possible. I have a call in to a social worker now. We'll see if that's a possible resource. This is just so out of hand. [/quote]
