By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.

other than than he is controlling and a manipulator?
*is he after her money?*
I don't agree at all with him keeping her hidden!! or excluding you, that's horrible. but do you think he will put her in harms way? actually keeping her to himself seems more than a narc. just seems plain weird.
I did call the police on Friday and they did a wellness check.. no one answered the door. I spoke to the officer and he has actually been to their house several times, due to the fact that they had issues with the movers that moved them.. I think they stole half of their items and wouldn't deliver their items either. The officer has met my mom and brother. He asked for their phone numbers and I shouldn't have given him my brother's, but I did. Of course he twisted it saying we had a plan in place and I would come visit when she was well again.. that was bs on his part. I thought about reporting him to the board, but I don't think I would get too far as I have no evidence. I think he has brainwashed her and preyed on her illnesses to control her. I spoke to the officer about going out there, if he does end up calling the police for me being on their property, the officer said they would arrest me for trespassing. I don't think his peers would think he has issues and he knows how to work the system and would make me sound crazy. He has blocked me off her phone, so I set up a fake texting number and texted her a few times.. all she said was you aren't being ignored I am healing. (if that was from her - could be from him. if he has her phone). I also tried to call by using *67 - phone number.. got through. she did answer and told me to leave her alone.. I am not sure if she knew it was me on the phone. I don't know what else to do? I am so upset, hurt and frustrated.
You must solve this now, as the longer you put it off, the worse it will get.
Does your mother have the capacity to make her own decisions? If not, has she been declared incompetent? Does she have an Advanced Directive stating who her health care power of attorney is, and/or her financial power of attorney. Is your brother her legal guardian? Would you be willing to be her legal guardian?
Who cares for your mother while your brother is working?
See my response above to Becky. I did talk to an attorney and he said it would be a waste of money at this point, due to the fact that it is a family he said/she said issue. My mother was very healthy and she did.. know I don't know as I can't get a hold of her to talk to her. My brother is very controlling and manipulative as was our father and they prey on people like my mom who can be easily influenced.. she is a strong person, but she gets preyed on by these type of people. I don't know if he is her legal guardian or not.. I don't think they have gotten that far.
I would call the police in their city and tell them you are being blocked from contacting your mother and you fear for her safety. The police are required to do a well check. All may be well, but Dr. Brother needs to know what he’s doing could very well be against the law. He’ll be furious, but what have you to lose?
