Someone with dementia is not capable of making a new will. When the testator eventually dies, you can decline to be appointed executor. The estate will be responsible for the debts. If the debts are greater than the assets the estate will be declared insolvent and the beneficiary will get nothing. The bank will take possession of the real estate.
