[quote=Anonymous]I’m in a similar situation but further ahead on the timeline. My (manipulative, abusive, personality disordered) mother has been 3+ years in assisted living and has now gone through everything—long-term care insurance (which had a cap), home equity (minimal) and IRAs. We’re paying 5K a month to keep her in assisted living, but that’s not sustainable for long. She’s not quite ready for skilled nursing, but that’s what we’ll need to do at some point in the next year, somewhere that has Medicaid beds. I’m dreading moving her, but there’s really no other choice. It’s so hard—she doesn’t deserve any of it, but she’s also frail and scared and it’s hard to be a hard ass. Good luck, OP. [/quote]
