OMG thank you ALL for all the response and information!!! I guess I am not alone in this!!


There is no way my father will move, I'm afraid the only way he will move is when he can no longer walk or function. But we are not at that point - yet. We will cross that bridge when we get there.

So far, I am on all of his bank accounts, just called the hospital that he would go to and - Yeah!! they already have me in the computer at the person to contact!! Phew!

Now my next step is to get that POA so the doctors and anyone else will talk to me. It is amazing what that piece of paper will do!

I have all of his accounts coming to my address now and we are doing his banking and paying bills via the internet. He actually thinks it is pretty neat that with a click of a button his bills get paid, so he is happy that I am doing this for him.

I went over there last week and his girlfriend has HER name & address plastered all over his house as the person to contact in case of ER.

No, no, no!!!! I have printed out several ICE with MY name & number and will be taking that over there tomorrow to replace it with hers. She is nice, but she must know that she does NOT have any power of my father. Sometimes I get wierd feelings about her........

Any ways it is nice to know that others have or are going through this and I am not alone.

I REALLY appreciate all the websites that everyone has listed, I have put them in my fathers new folder in my computer! I have started to read some of them, but it gets really stressful.

Thank you, thank you, thank you all! Gosh, it is amazing what you get when you ask!!!

Bunny & father
