[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There isn't much "the system" can offer unless and until the parents are out of funds. That includes the house being sold. When things get to that stage the next step is to get them certified for Medicaid/Medicare and find a facility that will take them. OP, seriously - you need to get some mental help for yourself STAT. Your anger and vitriol is beyond normal and can only be a horrible way for you to exist, not to mention those around you. Please reach out and get professional help. [/quote] Technically the house does not need to be sold if there is a communal/community (can't remember the term now) spouse who is living in it. But if both were to enter a nursing home at one time and there was no other money, then the house would need to be put on the market stat. And OP, it has to be a nursing home for Medicaid, not assisted living or any other kind of set up - only a nursing home.[/quote] Reading is fundamental as my AUNT is the one with cancer and needing hospice/Medicaid while my PARENTS plan to sell their home and move east, using that money gained for their future. DCUM is a sh(t storm of made up crap[/quote] OP, you have a lot of anger. A lot. Expecting people to grasp every detail of two different sagas is really too much. If you have piqued the ire of folks on a message board, I can only imagine how you treat people in person. The contempt you display for pretty much everyone but yourself is fairly astounding. Please get some help. If not for you, then for the people you interact with on the street, at work, or regarding your relatives. [/quote] This message board is full of vultures waiting to attack others for their private pleasure. It’s an illness for sure. I just ignore them. As I said above, sticks and stones. All I require to start my day is a cup of coffee and a hot shower. Could not get both here. Took a month to get the plumbing problems sorted out (crappy initial plumber and difficult homeowner) and the coffee pot would not heat. Try to explain to a cheap, elderly, sick individual that you are getting another? The sh(storm is amazing. I steal out very early every AM to a DD to get my one cup.[/quote]
