There is a 6 month pre qualifying period apparently, about Christmas will be time she (me as Attorney) can claim. Think hard about when she might first have qualified..... She was driving herself about in her own car in July. By the end of the month she wasnt.

I think Bromp is exactly correct.

One parent is still extant, but functioning at about 20 percent and now in permanent residential care. Getting old is a bugger, which may be why my dad didn't bother - although I still wish he had. Tell me about it. Aged mother has gone from driving her own car in July, to a blathering wreck who berates me on every (daily) visit for divorcing her. (she now thinks I am my own father / Her Husband - a man who died 36 years ago) complains about her sisters sleeping habits in bed with her ( she died 20 years ago) and makes tinned peaches in cold coffee (i think its coffee) as a main meal. Has severe heart failure, and Vascular Demientia. Final Power of Attorney came through today, currently looking at a care agency coming in daily, and searching out care homes (1300 quid a week GULP!) Sorry to hear about your mother and sorry for the late reply. I don't seem to come over here all that often. £1300 pw sounds quite a lot. Have you looked at Whiteley Village? I haven't any first hand experience, other than a few elderly ladies living in WV.

She is now beyond the scope of WV. We are now considering palliative care.
