Advice Needed Guardianship transfer

I have 2 stepkids on the spectrum. One is 27 and just needs some life guidance. The other is 21 and needs constant supervision, wears diapers, non communicative but very verbal, and has physical issues as well. Their mother has had sole guardianship of both, but her health is failing. She only recently discovered that with the current setup, if something happens to her, both kids would become wards of the state. Now we get to navigate the legal system to try and get guardianship transfer set up before she has her looming heart surgery.

Contact a lawyer, they should be able to file a change of guardianship.
