    suspecting elder abuse

    I have no doubt that she is scared, which is why we didn't move to press charges against her when she assaulted my dad. however, there is a way and an inappropriate way to communicate your fear and we have given her NO reason to be afraid of discussing that. again, it has never been about the...

    suspecting elder abuse

    Thank you all for your responses and your advice. At the very least I now know that I'm not paranoid and that I have every reason to be concerned. Any action we decide to take will be for his benefit and will be understandable. just a side note: when I was younger my Dad and I had a very very...

    suspecting elder abuse

    *absolutely positive house is in his name only. my suspicion as to why the sudden move to sell and purchase new home using his proceeds to put house in both their names. * Yes, I am a bit concerned about medications though he is at his doctors office for regular visits and he has been with this...

    suspecting elder abuse

    very good question and one I have also considered. she would not have to sneak around if there was a marriage. For 40 years I have heard why she didn't marry my dad. It was always because her deceased husband had a good pension which she would not have access to should she remarry. She always...

    suspecting elder abuse

    She is pushing the move. more so since the police incident. He is just starting to consider it most likely because she has his ear. He loves his home and we kids can make any accommodations and can provide help ( I'm almost always available in person myself) My husband has been suspicious of...

    suspecting elder abuse

    with the exceptions of the physical altercation, her other behavior is very much on the down-low. she is a smart woman, although I cant be sure about the kinds of conversations they have in our absence. I guess cameras could show something we aren't aware of now

    So, here are the things I've personally observed over the course of the last year. * one incident of physical abuse warranting police involvement * sudden desire to move ( house in his name only) * seeming attempts to keep his kids from being with him alone, using his dementia, as an excuse. *...
