I see that you are taking care of your wife. So, it's your wife's daughter who is seeking guardianship for her mother while I gather you have POA for your wife? Well, this is going to be one painful court scene with all of this played out in front of the judge. Guardianship involves the person in question plus some doctors to prove incompetency, but this involves also the dynamic of over riding a pre-existing POA. I don't know what this daughter is really after, but is sounds like she's going to loose a lot by even trying to do this.
Guardianship-- A daughter petitions the court for guardianship We have not asked help for help except to call her mother and talk to her and understand she has alzheimers and things get confused for her. She really not asking her to do anything but help her through the episode. but now she and her niece are trying to find her to be put away from her home me and her loving dog. Husband be damned you have no rights if she prevails. This guardianship overcomes any power of attorney
