Legal Question in Elder Law in Kentucky

durable power of attorney

My sister has had durable power of attorney over my mother since 2003. I believe that my sister only got this ''power'' so she could essentially defraud my mother out of her pension. my mother suffers from some dementia, so i truth she cannot manage her money properly. But that is all the more reason that my mother should not be defrauded . Also I took care of my mother and my aunt Stell . For the time of over a year that

I took care of my mother at my aunt's house my sister never gave my mother or myself a single penny. also forover two years of taking care of my aunt my sister never gave me a single penny and she cleaned out my aunt Stell's bank account , almost never brought food into the house, allowed the furnace to go unfixed for approximately nine months and when my aunt was vulnerable due to compromised health had my aunt , change the deed to her house to reflect joint ownership with mysister. Given the fact that my sister essentially defrauded my aunt and continues to defraud my mother , never provided any compensation to me fore caring for my mother fo ier a year and my aunt for over two years? is there any way I can seek to try to take away my sister's power of attorney over mother
