Welcome.

Don't mind me, I'm quite depressed myself...

However, your mom should have some money, especially at her age, since your dad worked... she should be getting at least half of what he would be getting in social security income. (Someone will correct me if I'm wrong...)

Try not to let your mom in on everything going on in your life... that includes therapy! But she is also entitled to medicare/aid or probably even better is a private HMO like Humana or whatever (still no charge and better coverage) that way she gets her medical care dirt cheap and can also receive therapy...

I don't know what to call who can advise you in CA about these matters... we have numbers in the phone book listed her for State help information...

I'll try to be more helpful in the future... come back and post often.
