GeneaLady Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 I know Desi left a trust for Lolita's care, but who actually looked after her? She was obviously in medical care, but who was active in her care and those decisions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvsbway Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 I heard Lucie make a passing reference to her still being at Desi's house when he died. I would think she moved to a facility after that with one of the kids holding power of attorney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvsbway Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 I heard she took Joe with her and left the other kids back home with Larry. And those kids were young too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all for children being around family in their last days, but not when mom's running around like a chicken with her head chopped off in an emotional earthquake trying to be wonder woman. Not good for either of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good for either of them. She said in the home movie that she did it because Joe was around 3-4. Old enough to have a strong attachment but not old enough to understand where she had gone. Remember she planned on being there for several months. Her oldest son was around 7-8 and would understand where she had gone and her youngest child was just a baby and wouldn't notice her absence. No good choices unfortunately but she really couldn't leave a 3-4 year old for months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but someone could have brought him over and served as babysitter so Lucie wouldn't have to care for 3 people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
