Hi MikeP

yes in the ideal world, the best solution would be a move back to the UK but that conversation cannot start when someone's response to just the mention of the UK elicits a torrid of abuse(verbal) based on ignorant views of the Daily Mail etc No, I have decided to accept their decision but as way of protecting my Mum's interests, I am applying for Tutelle. A judge will then decide if there is a need for limited guardianship given the circumstances and appoint person/persons from the Community. That is the most I can do to be honest. I leave on Wednesday so the decision will be made once I am back in the US. Apparently you don't need to present.

This will be my last visit to France as they have refused our help ( my sisters don't really want to help) and they have made their decision. My Dad has few memories issues but nothing that is not normal for someone of his age and Mum has her full mental facilities (it just her body that has let her down), so they are well aware of what they are doing.

I will write once I know what the tutelle decision is. I don't hold up much hope for it, to be honest.

Can you really get the necessary medical certificate that quickly jjmb? It has to be supplied by a specialist doctor not just any old one - in Normandy at least. The Tutelle document comes with a list. Also the form has to say why you are applying and who the person in  charge of affairs will be. Are you wanting to be the person in charge yourself?

Good luck
