My grandmother, who is now approaching her 80s, has been having a bad string of financial mistakes this year. She's grown more forgetful, and my uncle hasn't really done much to care for her or keep her finances in order.
As a result, she is 6k in debt to the airbase credit card company, has lost 3 insurance policies with nothing to show for it, and we are currently relying entirely on my meager income to keep us in a home.
My uncle has refused all efforts to get a job, my grandmother is very much too old, and I'm struggling to find work thanks to COVID and am subsisting off unemployment.
This is a situation that very much won't last, and I'm not really able to get much info out of her because she's old, evasive, and kind of majorly disorganized.
My questions are as follows: How can I work with her to get a full record of her debts, income, and assets? How can I use this to mitigate the problem? What options do I have for what I'm suspecting is a case of an old woman with a declining mental state being taken advantage of by dodgy creditors?
