We began the process of verifying that all of Mom's savings accounts are in the Trust. The first one we went to (Hawaii State federal credit union) is not. After talking with a financial services specialist we found that this particular account is joint with Dad so he has to be here to sign papers and that we also need an original document, not a copy. On another note, she was not winded today as we walked around to the different places to do this.
I spent the rest of the afternoon searching Mom's files. I started with the ones that she most actively uses for her financial stuff. While at it, I also looked for her safe deposit box key. I was not able to find either. But I still have 2 file boxes and another 3-drawer filing cabinet to check. I suspect the original Trust documents are in the safe deposit box. Which means if we don't find the key they will have to drill the lock out.
Mom still has her wristbands on. But better yet, she has asked several times since yesterday if she could take them off, so the training (and boredom at spending the extra time at the hospital) have made an impression on her. In fact, when I told her she could take them off this evening she decided to wait until tomorrow just to make sure she won't need them any more!
Happy Birthday to Uncle Tom and Bev!
