[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, people on this thread are awful.  You should however wash your hands of the situation.  It’s simply not your problem - let this woman die however she dies, don’t go back there or have anything to do with her care, and don’t feel guilty at all.  You’ve done so much more than you should have and are a very good person.[/quote]

Thank you. After a horrendous stomach flu, I got on a plane Sunday and came home. I told the social worker the day before to take me off the call list. She called yesterday despite, after calling my elderly mother, who is recovering from a heart attack and stroke, to try and get information about where my aunt should go after she dies. I said I had NO idea, that my aunt is convinced she will miraculously recover and always has, that she’s made NO plans for after her demise. I said to call the medical powers of attorney listed, not me, and I will work with my OWN family on any details, if needed, as I am close to them. I reiterated that when my aunt does pass, she has given power of attorney to the Executor of the will, who she has known four months, and to call her. She did manage a will, even though she thinks it will not be necessary.

I woke up all night with nightmares, thinking I was still back there in the middle of this hell.

Was thinking about you, OP. Hope you are recovering from this unbelievably stressful situation? Has your aunt passed away?[/quote]
