Child Custody & Power of Attorney?
Dept of Social Svcs has custody of my best friends children and has for about 2 years. I have an old power of attorney (4 years ago dated & notorized) from her that gives me right to see after her children. Is the power of attorney still effective? Can I go to DSS and demand that they give me her kids? They are ready to terminate her parental rights and I want to adopt those children. Where do I stand with my paper?

Article in newspaper advises that a Living Will is not applicable in CA but that a ”Advance Health Care Directive” is.

Power of Attorney A has given B General Durable Power of Attorney.
Power of Attorney
A has given B General Durable Power of Attorney. From a stroke A could not physically sign due to the effects of the stroke. The Power Of Attorney has been used by B after that incident. Now A (being of sound mind all the time) wants to change the Power of Attorney to include other signee’s in case B is not capable in the future.
Is this possible. Somebody said one cannot change it since B has used it to sign documents for A.
Also A has a living will. Does B have the power to make decicions contrary to the living will?

Child Guardianship
If a friend was to use a living will and leave the unborn child to myself, what steps need to be taken to ensure that I would gain custody of the child. Also if the fathers name is on the birth certificate would I have to prove him unfit?
