Yes, excellent to review the mail too. Many years ago I also cared for mother with Alzheimers and before we realized what was happening to her, she fell for mail scams sending off small checks and leading to phone calls with further solicitations. Happily we became aware before any real. damage was done to her assets. As well a reviewing mail, we had to. change her phone number two times to stop the calls. This all happened while she was still living on her own.

Changing his phone number is something we’ve discussed, and may end up doing. Thank you for sharing your experience! It helps so much hearing from you and others in similar situations.
