Who do they think would look after him if you weren't there?<br /><br />In Britain, you're not allowed to give away your assets - this is regarded as avoidance of inheritance tax and unless you live another 7 years (or something - not a lawyer, don't really know) then ... well, not quite sure what. But I think it's time to consult a lawyer. <br /><br /><br />How awful. I do feel for you.Pam https://www.blogger.com/profile/12641269043817163165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301215723729061662.post-31827242820524399202011-01-02T08:09:20.989+11:002011-01-02T08:09:20.989+11:00Oh Jesus!!!!

Phone them up and tell THEM they have to put him into a nursing home, and that it will be at THEIR expense, seeing as they have conveniently made off with his cash.

I'm thinking now of legal matters, and if he truly is unable to manage his affairs, then it might be time to sign Power of Attorney papers, naturally making sure that you have that power and none of his daughters do. Of course, your solicitor will know much more than me about such things.<br /><br />I am very sorry that not only do you have to sort through this mess, but that Dr P cannot realise what his daughters are up to and has turned on you. What a terrible way to end the year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
