My husband, who is brain dead now, has dementia (finally stages). 2 weeks ago, bank let me withdraw funds. With his condition, now that we went to withdraw final amount of $5,700 they wanted to not let him because we wanted to close the account. I’m nominee on Centrelink and I get Centrelink payments of aged care to my financial institution. I have a hearing for financial managentnso. I can withdraw the funds but it’s in August and I need it basically now or tomorrow.
Yes, you need help. So sorry for your troubles. You may need someone to communicate on your behalf at the hearing.
The definition of brain dead is:
Brain death is the complete, irreversible cessation of all brain activity, including the brainstem. It is both a medical and legal definition of death. Even though artificial life support can temporarily maintain breathing and a heartbeat, a brain-dead individual will never regain consciousness or breathe independently.
