Alzheimer’s Mother Hidden Away Somewhere

I’ve been trying to locate where my mother’s half sister placed her after she lived with her a couple months in a mobile home in Lake Placid Florida. Sandy’s uncooperative in disclosure. I want to fly out to Florida to bring flowers as well as make sure there’s no elder abuse. Mom, 84 has advanced Alzheimer’s a couple years but was likely undiagnosed with “young onset” version in her 30’s.

I noted these caregiver places are secretive from family searching to find their relatives! Could be HIPPA. The one place mother was living temporarily in 2021 I found from Yelp! The assisted living spa shared a lot of info after my phone inquiry, even the name on the power of attorney because I didn’t know who had mom. Her assisted living info in Las Vegas was confirmed and her sister Sandy coordinated everything, including the sale of mom’s condo.

I learned Sandy just reopened her travel agent business and it’s obvious she moved mom to a facility. There’s no way I’ll ever find her the way they’ve set up the system there. It’s just very frustrating.
