Agree with many here. Either you or your brother put all the bills on AutoPay, and put the statements on edeliver (get notice in email). Mom will eventually accept and appreciate it or will forget altogether. However, PLEASE PLEASE keep Mom informed about her finances and monitor the accounts with your brother.

Hopefully, he can be trusted but it seems he isn't interested. My wife and I went through a rough patch 12 yrs ago. She put her finances in care of her live-in son with a POA. He was (now passed) a recovering alcoholic. She now has Dementia and no longer knows who I am (since Nov 2019) In June 2021, she asked me to help her find out what her finances were since her son had stopped reviewing them with her. I knew something was amiss, but waited for her to ask me. (long history here of her doing everything for him and the marital conflicts it created) So we set out teleconferencing with the banks (still under COVID then). We found he had misused the POA and stole over $62K of her retirement funds and set up the deed to her pre-marital home to go to his best friend when she died. It's all corrected now but, as Ronald Reagan quoted, "TRUST BUT VERIFY!"
