My stepmom has applied for guardianship of my dad who is in an assisted living facility.

A couple of weeks ago, we had a Texas Ombudsman meet with dad to determine if he thought dad was incompetent and to also to determine if my stepmom was physically abusing dad. Dad admitted to the man that she had hit him in the past. APS investigated her a few months ago and just let the case die out. In the presense of the ombudsman, dad signed a letter stating that his family (kids and mom) could have access to his medical records from his doctor. Stepmom has been lying about his condition. Ombudsman says dad is NOT incapacitated or incompetent. Stepmom has filed for guardianship. How do we contest this? If she has guardianship and dad wants to divorce her, is he able to do that?
