This is happening to my grandmother. She passed away and we have found out that her home healthcare worker was in her will? My grandmother was of sound mind and would have definitely mentioned it to me since I'm in the will and close with her my question is, is that even legal? Since the worker was employed at the home care services? and only been around my grandmother for about a year.
It's also possible your g'ma was very appreciative of the care she received. Also positive she was not in 'sound mind' like you think. You weren't there. You have to physically participate in someone's life to know what's going on. People who can be taken advantage of, or memory issues/etc, can be very coherent when talking to outsiders while being mentally diminished with those around them all the time. You may never really know what her mental capacity was prior to her death simply because you were not there.
Did anyone else go into the home regularly (from the family)? If not, it would seem you may just have to go with the assumption that she was cared for well, got to stay in her home, and was happy via the care of outsiders.
