Asked on Oct 13th, 2020 on Guardianship and Conservatorship - Florida
More details to this question:
My mother (60) has had a massive stroke and has already been in the ICU for a month as of today. My brother and I (both in our 30s and in good terms) would like to establish one of us a POA as it is difficult to make decisions for her financially without one. How would we go about this while she is on a ventilator and not able to speak or write?

A person in your mother's condition is unable to grant either a Medical or a Durable [Financial] Power of Attorney. You must seek guardianship/ conservatorship.
