I bet this happens a lot.
We need to protect our elderly better.
We have a hard time in our own family. Both mom and dad have Alzheimers and mom can be mean to dad. Even with four round the clock aides it can be hard to stop every yell or slap. And mom doesn’t know what she is doing.
Maybe men should think twice about the much younger trophy wives. The older wives might be more loyal..
People in general need to think real hard before they jump
at the “trophy” wife or the “cougar pet” husband. - You
better get yourself a good wife or husband when you’re
young, and STICK with them. If you’re unlucky enough to
have bad health issues later in life; the “trophy” is
gonna be moving on to greener pastures. - A friend’s husband
decided to ditch her and shack up with the “tv dinner”
queen who “did not cook”. A little while later, he became
ill with a degenerative disease which required many
surgeries and much care. The “trophy” soon ditched him
and tried to hook the owner of the company she worked for.
Never did know what became of that wonker; but the guy
was married & had a family, too. No problem to her!
So, he’s SOL and richly deserving of being SOL. (His wife
begged him to stay for the sake of the kids; but in his
mind, he was too much in “love” and too HOT to do that.
In retrospect, his wife was probably better off in the
long run.)
Another casualty of the "War On the Family."
I want a trophy wife. Do you think I could get a head mount of my Ex?
Very sad but usually it’s the children who commit elder abuse. We went through it with Hubby’s dad and sister. Never thought she would do it but she moved in with dad and it bagan. He had slight dementia and with no one knowing she took him to his attorney and changed the trust from Hubby’s name to hers. When she started stealing from him and being mean to him we called her on it and she threw him in a home, stole all his money, and moved. Our only option was to hire an attorney and go to court. When we did that the stupid judge put him under the sis who did all this as his conservator. We were in court for 3 years. 2 1/2 years in Dad died and the only thing left to fight over was the money. The judge insisted they reach an agreement and they did. She wound up with about 4/5 of Dad’s money. Our attorney put together an open and shut case of bank records, etc absolutely showing she had stolen all his money (while he was alive), and turned in dozens of fraudulent documents to the court and turned it in to the DA’s office who never did a thing about it. The witch got away with every fraudulent, thieving thing she did, even to the court itself.
