[quote=Anonymous]OP, you can't bankrupt yourself to pay for your mom. And you can't take from your child's education to pay for your mom. When did you sell the condo that had both your names on it? Can you prove that "she" and/or you spent the proceeds on her care? Medicaid has a 5 year look-back. They can take any money she made in the last 5 years if it was given to someone else. Sounds like you are covered given all you have spent on her care. Just make sure you have the documentation. You need to find her a Medicaid bed in a Medicaid nursing home. She has no quality of life. She has exhausted her money and is exhausting yours. I think you have to accept that when an elderly person is this far along in being incapacitated it is expensive AND terrible no matter where you are. You owe yourself, your family and your daughter a future, especially after all you have done.[/quote]
