BULLYING GUARDIANS CANNOT BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE
Home > Blog > BULLYING GUARDIANS CANNOT BE HELD ACCOUNTABLEMy mother is terminally ill. Her agent (my sister) had her declared incompetent Nov. 25/08 to get control of the Personal Directive & Power of Attorney My mother may lack capacity in some areas but is still capable of expressing her wishes. The agent (my sister) is totally disrespecting and ignoring my mother’s wishes. We have complained to the Public Guardian but they state they have to respect the legally appointed agent – I doubt they have even talked to Mom. (In fact Mom had tried to correct her agents but was stopped from doing so when the PD was enacted). The doctor, the agent and the Public Guardian are all writing her off eventhough she still has the capacity to communicate her wishes- this is so unjust. No one is listening to my poor mother. What options do we have to ensure my mothers rights are respected? What is happening is so inhumane!A distraught family member
