Hi @chelseyn. That deep worry you feel for her well-being is completely valid. Staying present in your grandmother's life and carefully noting what you're seeing shows real dedication. It makes complete sense to want to explore every avenue to ensure she's properly cared for, and seeking advice from a local elder law expert could help. You're clearly acting out of love and a strong desire to protect your grandmother.
