My father has advanced stage 4 lung cancer that has spread ever where, he has had 36 radiation treatments, he had to have a trach put in, he has been placed in a nursing to learn how to take care of the trach, the day he was supposed to leave the nursing home and come home, he was really in bad shape and they wouldnt let him leave, he just had to have a feeding tube placed so he can get nutrition yesterday.
He has a living will and a DNR order, me and my mother are his medical power of attorneys,but we arent aloud to do anything untill he is unable too.. we need to be able to talk to his dr.s and make his phone calls for him regarding his bills and stuff to make sure things get taken care of, he doesnt own a home , my mom is on his checking account so she can write checks . What do we need to do, we dont have the money to hire a lawyer to have a POA drawn up,
