Have you done a smelly up the usb?

Seriously though, it's a horrific situation that nobody is educated on until it's too late.

We're potentially going to have a similar situation with the wife's parents (Parkinson's and dementia), and you don't know or think about power of attorney etc until it's too late.

Good luck, seems you've already had some good offers of advice on here, so well done wrath xx
