“Next of Kin” Isn’t Enough

Sarah’s mam had a stroke at 72. One day everything was normal and the next, Sarah was being told her mam could no longer make decisions for herself.

Like most people, she assumed she’d just step in and take over.

[ACTS @AgeConcernTS]

Being “next of kin” doesn’t give you the right to step in and manage things
And it’s usually only when something goes wrong that families find that out.
