Noelina’s caretaker surfaces
Says he instructed wife to lie about her whereabouts
The second caretaker of Noelina Prospere-Medor, the octogenarian who was found on Saturday after her UK-based son frantically tried to locate her, has surfaced saying his estranged wife lied about the woman’s whereabouts on his instructions.
Hubert Alexander visited Stabroek News yesterday saying he wanted his side to be heard and charged that the woman’s son deliberately tried to bypass and bully him. He said he returned from the interior late Friday and only heard then about reports in the press that the woman’s son had been looking for Noelina.
He said he wanted a confrontation with Sylvester Medor whenever he came to Guyana and so he told his wife not to give out any information on Noelina’s whereabouts. “So the only way was for her to withhold information and let me deal with the matter.” the man said.
He told this newspaper that it was in June this year that he and his wife had problems and separated and the only place he could have found accommodation was at 363 Craig, East Bank Demerara, the small apartment in which Medor was found last Saturday. He said he took the woman there with him because she was ultimately his responsibility and he felt he needed to take care of the woman who had raised him as a child.
However with his job as a chauffeur and miner in the interior, Alexander said about five days after he took the elderly woman with him to the Craig apartment he left for the interior. The night before his departure, however, he asked a woman to take care of the octogenarian. He said he meant to be away for a few days and so he handed her $5000 to cater for the woman’s meals.
The man said he returned at various times from the interior but the woman he hired to help started to make harsh financial demands and he was not satisfied with the way in which she took care of the woman. So he told her he no longer needed her services. He said he then hired another woman who looked after Noelina up to the day she was taken from the Craig apartment.
Alexander was furious about reports that his apartment was in a deplorable condition, saying that such was not the case. In his view the woman was comfortable while he slept in a hammock slung across the room. He said he felt the caretakers who knew of the situation and reported such to the media were deceitful. However when asked about his instructions for his wife to deceive both the media and the police about the woman’s whereabouts, Alexander said his wife had a right to honour him rather than the media or police because of the situation and especially since Noelina was his responsibility.
Alexander has since gone to the hospital to visit Noelina but said he was told by someone looking over her that he had to get permission before he is allowed to see her.
My intentions
Alexander told Stabroek News yesterday that when he took the initiative to move Noelina from her Albouystown place it was mostly because of the deplorable conditions there and after he found her in a pool of blood.
He said the woman told him that she needed someone to defend her since she and her husband had issues regarding the Albouystown property and she felt she was being taken advantage of. So she made him her Power of Attorney. The man said his intention was to get the woman’s property renovated and to take care of her.
He said he later was able to contact Sylvester Medor after he noticed the woman had a letter from him in 2003. He said the woman spent close to two months at the Palms Geriatric home before moving in with him and his wife in Middle Road La Penitence.
Alexander added that Medor sent sums of money initially but it was not enough to take care of the woman. According to him, at the same time they had started a process of completing a Deed of Gift which would have eventually made the woman’s son the legal owner of the Albouystown property.
He said he later learnt that Medor had gone behind his back and made numerous telephone calls to the attorney handling the matter. At the same time he stopped making contact with him or sending money for his mother’s maintenance.
“So ownership of the house rather than his mother’s well-being became his priority,” he argued.
Alexander insisted that because of his outstanding issues with Medor and the fact that the man did not want to trust him with the property, “I said when he come I want me and him to have a
confrontation first so my wife was told not to give any information about the woman’s whereabouts.”
Medor went public after he came to Guyana last month in search of his mother. Reports to the police as well as several newspaper articles stirred interest in the case and one of the woman’s caretakers led police to the apartment last Saturday. Noelina was taken to the GPHC where she remains. The Human Services Ministry has since said it will intervene to ensure that the woman is taken care of until her son returns to make permanent arrangements for her.
Alexander told this newspaper yesterday that that would only happen if he backs down since he has a document which is still valid and entrusts him with taking care of the woman.

on October 9th, 2008 7:13 amIf this woman’s son was totally interested in her, why didn’t he extend his time to look for her, especially after not seeing her for years? His motives are obvious. However, the caretaker should not have looked her in that house and should be held responsible.

In reply to the above comment on October 9th, 2008 8:52 am:Your Right! but the situation show as though the son was right since everyone was so silent on the issue. Now that the caretaker come forward and give his version now someone can know what really transpired. Having said so some see it differently here, noting that Guyanese was scampish. I’m happy the caretaker came forward and made it clear. But also the big question was why the son returns to the UK he might have known something would have irrupted out of this and claim a so called surgery he had to undergo as a scape-goat. I hope this mother find piece eventually.

on October 9th, 2008 7:41 amWhat a weak story! Does this “caretaker” think this puts him in a better light? Doesn’t this soul ’s welfare and seeing her son supercede all other considerations? What a despot - instructing his wife to deceive the police and the woman’s own son!

In reply to the above comment on October 9th, 2008 1:02 pm:No I dont think so. If the old lady was of a sound mind at the time she gave the caretaker “Power of Attorney”, then they would probably have to go to court again to resolve this issue. On another note, if the son was so concerned about his mother, why in heaven’s name was he absent from her for approximately 40 years, to the point that the caretaker had to contact him about his mother. Shouldn’t it have been the other way around. The last contact with him by his mother was 2003. At her age he should have been in constant contact with his mother. Then when he heard about the property, why did he not care about her well being and was more concerned about the property. I’m speaking from experience when I say that the family always show up when the assets are being divided, but the responsibility of taking care of their loved ones are always left to the unfortunate so called “hired help”.

on October 9th, 2008 8:34 amThe Caretaker didn’t konw that the Son was in Guyana for two weeks, you had wanted a confrontation with the Son, where were you? Why your Wife/exwife didn’t sent a message about the presence of the womans son, so the story could be cleared from day one. You may had good intentions for the Octogenarian, but,
I can’t understand your side of the story…..

Messages don’t get in there easy inspite of all the wonders of modern technology.

on October 9th, 2008 9:40 amThis all has to do with the property in question, they both dont give a ‘NUTS’ about that woman. Can you believe the son in london haven’t seen his mother for years and it is only when she went missing he came rushing to look for her, I wonder what was going through his mind as he was in GT. The other one wanted a confrontation with the son, so where was he when the son was in GT. I think they should arrange a meeting and get this whole thing clear up for the better of that woman. They are too wicked to have that woman go through such thing! They both have their minds on that property.

You should take some time off and get this whole situation cleared up with your main focus on getting your mother well taken care off, she cannot be going through this stress at her age. she is your mother for heaven sake. By the way can your mom say something for herself and let us know who owns the property? And why didn’t your mom contacted you, aren’t you too on regular contact? With the whole story in the air you should be in contact every single day, even just to hear that your mom is ok. All I can say is that this has more to it.

Get yourself back to Guyana at once and make sure that your mother does not fall once again into the hands of these callous people.The Gentlewomen’s Home on Brickdam might be a good place for her.
ALL_GT
on October 9th, 2008 9:52 amThe caretaker wanted the house.. If he did not know the son was in the country why instruct the wife to deny knowing of her wherabouts. Anyone would have sought to preserve the property of an elderly parent. And Mr. Caretaker how could someone ‘go behind your back’ to talk to their mother. You are not the woman’s son! If she did not own that property I doubt you would have been so concerned about her well being. You should have contacted the son if the woman had issues, instead you shielded her from everyone. Hoping she passes away and you’ll end up with the property.

And i am going to write a letter to British High Commissioner in Guyana to intervene about how her money that the British Government gives to her every month has been spent for the past 40 years.

In reply to the above comment on October 9th, 2008 1:43 pm:never thought of it like this, Her pension may not be a lot for a person living in the Uk but enough to keep an elderly person living in GT comfortable.

on October 9th, 2008 10:11 amIf this is really your side of the story you had no right what so ever to instruct your wife to lie about the woman’s whereabout, and also to lie to the police.
It this was the case as you mentioned the son stop sending money for you to you had every right to report this to the Ministry of Human Services and let them handle it by making contact with the son in London, and moving the lady back to a home for the elderly.
You should be charged with kidnapping.
The old lady was hungry when the police was informed……………
The photograph of the apartment said it all……………….

on October 9th, 2008 11:59 amEmotions can be so blinding to some of you readers…
First off; Mr. Alexander, took her out from the Geriatric home and had her live where? With him!!
Secondly; he started a process of completing a Deed of Gift which would have eventually made the “”woman’s son”" the legal owner of the Albouystown property.
Thirdly: being displeased with the first caretaker, he fired her and hired a second one (who locked the woman in the house - NOT MR. ALEXANDER)
Analyse properly then question motives…

The son if he had not seen his mother for 40 years has to have a good reason for showing up in guyana in the weeks prior to having surgery in the UK. Was he after the property or was he trying to create good karma for himself before going under the knife. Only he knows.

While the second caretaker was wrong to lock the lady up, Mr Alexander have told hsi side of the story. I feel maybe the son was upset with his mother in some way and kind of disowned her, then suddenly when he realised that for 40 years he made do without him and has property and who knows maybe even some money somewhere, he finally decide he has a mother and wants to get back in touch.

on October 9th, 2008 1:16 pmIt is absolutely disgraceful how everyone appears to shift the blame when the victim, that poor Mrs Medor,was left in total squalour and in horrendous state of neglect. Her caregiver (that Alexander person) argues , that at no time were her needs neglected BUT does he realise, the cameras never lie for what I saw of the photos printed on her living contitions when she was found, would be oblivious only to a blind person. (I would not allow my dog to live under such conditions ….. and I don’t own a dog}. At least he was able to take time out from those qualourous conditions being ablebodied .and get himself a healthy meal and a breath of fresh air while poor and infirmed Mrs Medor existed without dignity,and respect in a locked room without basic necessities .i.e…adequate care and attention water and food. As a firm believer in Karma, I would like to say to Alexander…and his partner in crime ….SHAME ON YOU BOTH and hope you both endure experiences as old people that are far worst that what you made that poor Mrs Medor endure.

He wanted to confront the son about the house but not the health and wellbeing of the mother? Pulease.
It’s sad that the welfare of this woman is tossed aside for egos and what seems like greed by both parties.

on October 9th, 2008 5:26 pmThey both should be prosecuted for the crime that they committed on the fragile lady. The landlord is much to be blame in this shameful situation. This is not about property this is about neglect. Alexander should be ashame of himself. If he treat his wife with so much disrespect can anyone imagine what that elderly women went through. Only in Guyana can he get front page news any where else in the world he would have been arrested for the crime that he has committed.

In reply to the above comment on October 11th, 2008 10:50 pm:bess.England can bring out the best and worst of people, because of it’s economics Most guyanese nationals, who lived in England are Cheap, compared to their US and other foreign counterparts. Don’t forget the words of the Poet, who wrote it best. ” Oh England is a pleasant place for those that’s rich and high, but England is a cruel place for such poor as i.” If your logic holds well, this man should have been happy to reunite with his mother and give the damn property to Mr. Alexander, regardless of his indiscretions, for keeping her ALIVE.

on October 9th, 2008 7:39 pmShame on you Mr Alexander and your wife, i don’t believe your story, you know Mr Médor was in Guyana looking for his mother after 40 year, you had no right to tell your wife not to give out any information on Noelina’s whereabouts after all he’s her son noone knows the reason for him being away from his mother for so long beside god even though that ain’t supposed to happen she’s his mother and she doesn’t deserve that treatment. But thank god that you Mr Médor expose those persons and she was found before the worst .
Mr Médor i think it’s time you shoud get close to your mom an take good care of her because we only got one and she need to be cherish.

on October 9th, 2008 9:05 pmsir, I think u r a bit better off than the care taker, take into consideration if he was not taking good care of your mother she would of been alive until now
grief and hunger might have killed her.
I think u both should put all differences aside and sit and talk for the well being
of your mother, I dont think he can take care of her and b in the interior, she
need 24hrs. care u need 2 find someone who can and will take proper care of
her. Right now in
Guyana everyone will want 2 take care of her just 4 the money so b careful.
Fix the house and put a responsible peerson 2 live with her.
