[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would apply for food stamps for her. I would start putting aside a small amount of money in savings account you can afford ($100, 250 500 a month) for when her medications, PT, taxis, etc gets to the point where you help financially. Even then I would help in small ways at first (pay phone bill, etc). But most importantly you need to encourage her to find a community- church, village, etc so she has other people to lean on and keep an eye on her in addition to you. -someone who financially supported her own mother for years[/quote] I would apply for food stamps, rental assistance, energy assistance, meals on wheels, start the Medicaid spenddown (you can spend down assets and still be eligible even if income is too high (med expenses offset income). I would not set aside my own money for her. Not your responsibility. That’s what the government is for.[/quote]
