Legal Question in Banking Law in Florida

Recently My father gave me $10,000 to buy a car. It was acknowledged verbally that it would be a loan. Now my siblings are threatening to have me put in jail because he is elderly and has early alzheimers. He lives on his own and still makes his own financial decisions. Should I be concerned and should I have a loan document prepared?
