This is a true and tragic story. As Frank's friend and confidant, I had witnessed some of the incidences mentioned in this story. I have also sighted documents verifying the matters mentioned here. I have Frank's expressed permission to tell his story. 

This is NOT just a story about property settlement. 

How can two adult children ( 40 and 45 years of age) leave their aging father (age 77 now) in unacceptable living quarters for more than 8 years. (see 'Video Page").  INEXCUSABLE !

The neglect, mental anguishes, the emotional and psychological upheavals that this man has endured over more than 8 years are  taking a toll on his health.  He already has a few serious medical problems.

The daughter works in the area of recommending/providing mental health services.

When does one starts to be concerned about one's parent's mental health? Only when he/she is diagnosed as mentally ill?

IS THIS A CASE OF ELDER ABUSE?
