Re: guardenship
Hello. In this situation your mother-in-law may
want to consider opening a disabled person's estate
for her sister. If your mother-in-law is appointed guardian of her sister's disabled person's estate, she would be authorized to talk to her sister's doctors or counselor. Of course the big question is whether there is enough money for your mother-in-law's sister to be cared for on a 24 hour basis. Many families face this challenge today. I will be happy to discuss this further and in more detail.
