Who gave you the DPOA? And this person's son keeps attempting to get his mother/father to alter the DPAO to appoint the son instead?

Where is the person living?

Your original DPOA stands, because once the principal has lost mental capacity s/he cannot revoke it or create a new one. But are you able to establish that the person you are acting for had in fact lost capacity before the tinkering began?
