My mom forgot

My mother is diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. And mom forgot that she promised ME the house, not to my brother after her death. How can I remind her?

    Touchy subject, if you don't have it in writing, you may be in a difficult bind.  See my post today about competence and signing a will....

    In my family there’s my parents and my older sister and myself. Mom was diagnosed April 2020. My sister has never put family first. I have done the bulk of caregiver with my dad doing the other part. My mom has it in her head that my dad and I are conspiring against her and will not let him talk on the phone with me or be alone together. She’s constantly criticizing me, but praising my sister. Yesterday was the straw that broke my back. It’s my birthday. We were having the dinner there, but all food was being done by my daughter. My parents forgot about it and when I called him on cellphone he hurried me off saying he would call back and discuss it. Never happened. I feel for my mental health I need to step away and just let the 3 of them deal. Bit of background, I come from an abusive family and was completely shut out for many years by them. I can’t do this again
