QUESTION
How do I become my mother's guardian or power of attorney
Asked on Sep 08th, 2015 on Wills and Probate - California
More details to this question:
My mom has been in the hospital for awhile. Its not looking too good for her at this point. How do I become her Guardian or Power of Attorney so I can make sure her bills are paid and take care of her medically? The last thing my mom said to me before she was intubated was that I have to make sure nobody else besides me and my kids touch her stuff and for me to handle everything. Her friend told me that she thinks my mom made a will with me as the executor. How do I find out if this is true?

You would need a copy of the will. Do you know where or can you find out where it is kept?
You will need your mother to sign a durable power of attorney for finances for you to handle her financial matters, and an advance health care directive for you to make medical decisions for her.
