Hello, @mutwo I’ve been wondering if it might be a good idea for you to talk with a lawyer. You are still the wife and you need to know what your rights are as things move forward. I can’t tell you what to do, only offer suggestions. Maybe on a more positive note, you could tell me about your husband. Do you mind that I asked you?

Hi Becky...this situation has shown me that I’m nobody. He has now been transferred to a long term acute care facility. I was able to do a FaceTime with him when he first arrived there before they set up his password. I don’t know if it was good that I did because he looked so lost, so different than how he was when I was with him. When I called back the next day, a different nurse asked me if I was the wife and I told her yes, she said we can’t talk to you and hung up. I hired an attorney the day of the hearing on March 27th but I don’t think I hired the right one. A national advocate recommended him but after I told her some of his remarks she said I shouldn’t have. He has relatives affiliated with the hospital that we wanted to be transferred from. He made me aware of that before I hired him so it was my mistake. You can ask me anything . I have to write a letter to the judge in response to the false statements that were made in the petition ....nikki
