What is the name of your state? TX

My grandmother has dementia and is no longer competent to sign anything. Before this, she had signed over POA to my step-brother. My parents(her son) are now living with her to take care of her. They need to change it so that they have POA instead of my step-brother. My step-brother is willing to transfer the power to them but doesn't know how. I don't think they can do a revocation and signing of a new one because she is now incompetent. So what can be done?
 


I think the change would have to be in the form of a guardianship at this point, and done by the courts. At minimium this needs to be run by an Atty.

Correct guardianship is required. POAs are not transferrable.
