[quote=Anonymous]Adding on that with a neurologist's note stating that she still knew what she was doing, I was able to get a lawyer to draft a POA and AMD for a relative. It may not be too late. The lawyer just wanted a CYA to say she knew what she was doing, and it sounds like your mom does still have the ability if she can drive, do laundry, etc. You will also want an AMD (Advanced Medical Directive) so you can make medical decisions for her. I am not sure how you will handle the will. With a broadly drawn POA, you may be able to give yourself the power to draw up a will/trust? Or just leave the estate intestate? Of course, as a stopgap you can also use Legal Zoom or whatever to draft the papers yourself and then go to the UPS Store for signing/notarizing...I am suggesting this only because you are an only child and you really need these powers to protect/advocate for your mom.[/quote]
