2. On the basis of the foregoing history and examination, the affiant is of the
opinion that the ability of JOSEPH MEYERHOFFER to receive and evaluate information
effectively and communicate decisions in any way is impaired to such a significant extent
that he is totally unable to manage his medical and financial condition to meet essential
requirements for his physical health, welfare and safety, and, therefore, that he is, and
continues to be, incapacitated under Chapter 55 of the Probate, Estates and Fiduciaries
Code, as amended.
3. The physical and mental condition of said patient would be harmed by his
presence at the hearing on his incapacity.
