re: Neurologist said he is considering filing with a judge to remove my FIL from his finances

I have not heard of anything like this, but is this to protect his finances from himself?

I am now curious because this would have been kept my grandmother from being manipulated and having most of her money put into The Stanford Group. For those not familiar, this is a description of the stanford group.

quote:

The Stanford Financial Group was a privately held international group of financial services companies controlled by Allen Stanford, until it was seized by United States (U.S.) authorities in early 2009. Headquartered at 5050 Westheimer in Uptown Houston, Texas, it had 50 offices in several countries, mainly in the Americas, included the Stanford International Bank, and was said to have managed US$8.5 billion of assets for more than 30,000 clients in 136 countries on six continents.[1][2] On February 17, 2009, U.S. Federal agents placed the company into receivership due to charges of fraud.[3][4] Ten days later, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission amended its complaint to accuse Stanford of turning the company into a "massive Ponzi scheme".[5]

Anyway, the reality of it all is that there are some hard times to come and I wish your family the best. If I had to do it all over again, I would go to school to be a Neurologist (I'd want to be on the research end of it) because the brain fascinates me. Alzheimer's is an awful thing to watch someone go through the rest of their life with. Its almost cruel watching someone go through it once they can't remember anyone.
