Am in hot and humid Florida getting my aunt and uncle's affairs in order. Yesterday, met with lawyer and bank, and got all the finances in our name. Now need to open up new account at a bank that has branches throughout country and transfer money. Also, checked out condo they had moved from and met aunt and uncle for dinner at their assisted living facility. Aunt is doing better, and uncle even seems physically a bit better, but most importantly, they are both very happy to have us take control--this from a couple who have been adamant for years they could handle things! So things are going well.
One issue is that car is missing, but we know it was moved somewhere a couple of months ago to prevent uncle from trying to drive it. Got to find out where it is today. We also need to go through bills today and get cell phone cord so it can be charged. Also, they are paying for four cell phone lines, and three of them are lost phones, so need to get them deleted. Plus minor things like putting a credit lock on their accounts and getting rid of extra credit cards. Then will take one and reduce credit limit to a much smaller amount to limit liability. So things are going well.
So, off to tasks for today!! Got to check rental condo and meet with CPA after going through bills. Tomorrow will be to get results of dementia evaluation and look for another facility. Whew!!
