Help my mom stay in memory care community.

Hi, I am fundraising to keep my mom Anne who has severe Alzheimer's in the Memory Care Community where she is currently living.

My brother and I are equal POA's for our mom.  He handled the finances and I did her health care.  We never did anything without getting the OK from the other. The problem is without my knowledge or with my permission. My loving dear brother, a Gulf War Veteran, who has his own health problems.  Decided to help increase the money we had from selling our mom's house.  He did not tell me about using any of our mom's money. Only  after being scammed was I told and found out that he lost the majority of the money. $160,000. It was reported to the FBI fraud division and to the local police.

Mom has been in this memory care center sence June of 2021. I was told about the money being lost around November 2021.  Now down to just a few months of funds before I will have to pull her from the place she is calling home. And where Anne is well taken care of, happy, and has friends.

Anne had cancer 4 years agi and the treatment cured the cancer but at the same time  sped up the Alzheimer's.  Over the last year, she has gone downhill quite drastically. The Psychiatrist has been seeing her at the memory care center has stated that at she needs to stay where there is skilled care.

I love my mother, but I do not have the skill to care for a person who has the level of Alzheimer's she has. Plus she is 24 hour care. 

As kids, we were taught you take of family. I am trying. I am not one to ask for help. But I have my back against the wall. There is no way my husband and myself can afford to pay for her continued care. It is $6000 a month for her to stay where she is. There is a limited number of people staying in the community. So there is lots of one on one for each resident. There is always activities going  on all day long. They have even gone to a local park for outings. With my brother doing what he had done. We will not be able to get Medicate assistance.  Plus that would also mean we would have to move mom to a different place. Where the chances are great that she would not get the great level of care. All I am after is keeping mom safe and happy. Please help!

And no my brother will not have access to any money raise for mom.  PROMISE!!!!!!  I have had to taken over totally.  Making sure her medications are filled and she has all the items she needs to stay happy healthy, and safe.
