I have a family member who is Power Of Attorney of my Mom. She put my mom in an elderly home and left out of state far away. I trust this family member and in no way believe she is stealing money from my Mom. My concern here is she put my Mom in a home and she will not let me say things about any living conditions I see that need to be fixed to her. If I say something to the workers this family member gets mad. If I say something to this family member she gets upset. My Mom lives in the same town I do. I go and visit my Mom and know she is getting taking care of. I do find some things upsetting for example. My mom gave me back an electric blanket I bought her last year because she got a smaller size of bed. This electric blanket was never washed and it was dirty and stunk like puke and other nasty smells. I had to throw it away. I never smelled it before when I visited her in the past and my Mom would fold up the blanket when not in use. The light part of the blanket was dingy black and it should have been a cream color. When I confronted the POA she doesn't want to hear about it. In fact she doesn't want to hear about anything except if she needs to order something for her. I cannot even mention going over and seeing her to this relative or she gets upset and cuts me off saying she doesn't want to hear about it. I would become power of attorney but I have siblings that are so high strung and one is afraid she is going to get jipped out of money and would cause a big drama scary scene which might include me stealing which I do not need. I don't know what to do. Please help
