How do I get my mom to give power of attorney.

I obviously can’t twist her arm to do something she’s uncomfortable with. I also don’t want to be accused of making someone who is mentally unable do something they didn’t want to do.

But, I see a train coming right for me with all the legalities of getting guardianship. My mom and I have always had a decent relationship. I am trying to not take it personal that she won’t spare me the massive legal headache and heartbreak coming my way when I have to jump through so many hoops to take care of her. Especially with how much of my young adult life I have already given up for her (I’m 29.) I don’t think she can comprehend how cruel it will be.

At this point I’m considering setting up a meeting with our family attorney and hopefully he will have the sway for her to understand.

What have you guys had success with?

Mom scored worse on her cognitive test but doesn’t seem that much worse

Hi there

Just took my mom for a follow up and they issued her a cognitive test which she scored 6 points worse than the last one. The big kicker here is that now she does not qualify for leqembi infusions. Been trying to get her them but they really took their time with setting us up and when leqembi finally called she doesn’t have active insurance, I’ve been trying to get her insurance reactivated through cobra. But now it’s too late.

I’m very upset, mad at myself because I have been inconsistent with giving her aricept because she fights me on it. I think she could’ve scored better cause when she is on it she is definitely better but absolutely hates aricept because it makes her tired throughout the day and will argue with me every time it’s time to take it.

I wanted to do everything I could for her. She’s 64 deserves more better days and I’m 29 and don’t want to be without both of my parents in my 30s.
It just sucks, I wish she had remarried or my dad didn’t pass or my older brother would take more of the reigns. But this falls squarely on my shoulders for not getting her the medicine every night and I just don’t know what to do next.

They suggested memantine, does any one have experience with that.

What the heck am I doing wrong with the brake master cylinder?

I have a 2010 Outback with a 2.5 L engine, automatic with no turbo.

My brake booster was starting to fail (vacuum leak) so I replaced it. My master cylinder seemed to be leaking at the main seal so I replaced that as well.

First I used a Duralast master cylinder that started leaking from the main seal into my new booster while I was bleeding the brakes so I returned that and ordered a Raybestos Element 3 which ended up doing the same thing! Even worse when I pulled the Raybestos out, the push rod got stuck in the dust boot of the booster, came out of the assembly and poured brake fluid everywhere!

My question is, am I missing some necessary step to installing these things, missing an adjustment, or am I getting unlucky with these aftermarket parts?

It’s worth noting, I only see these leaks when my pedal is fully compressed.

The booster is also a Duralast remanufactured power booster. My fuel trim is better and the car idles better but I can’t get the hydraulic system figured out.

Any and all input is greatly appreciated!
