Ginger's Story

This is the story of my friend Ginger who is now under a guardianship because of a traumatic brain injury from which she has completely healed. We have tried so hard to get her guardianship terminated, but have been unsuccessful so far, but may be very close.

I read Tennessee codes regarding guardianships and conservatorships, and was also advised by a judge in another county to send a letter to the probate judge in Davidson County asking for the guardianship to be terminated. I did that and it was promptly ignored. I also sent a copy to Ginger's guardian and got no response. I expected that at the very least she would be courteous and call to discuss it, either with me, or Ginger, or both....I was wrong.

In May of this year, I decided I'd take Ginger to see her guardian. I thought, how could she not see with her own eyes, talk to Ginger, and decide, WOW! She's really healed, and appears to have no memory loss.

I thought the guardian would say...."How wonderful...let's terminate this thing!"

BUT, Ginger was told that "maybe you're acting, I don't know for sure".....and "the judge will only accept a report from a neuro-psychiatrist"....AND, the guardian wanted to send Ginger to a weight loss clinic!!!

This summer I was helped with another letter to the judge and guardian. All the t's were supposed to be crossed and all the i's dotted!!! We sent it, waited for a response.....and NONE came. Found out this court doesn't recognize anything other than petitions. But, couldn't the guardian have at least given a response??
