i have a durable medical will that forbids nursing home care, only Hospice, so i don't think i will have to worry,,,, but i should still make some allowances for the unforeseen.
thanks for this thread~!
It's a lot to think about. I wonder about putting her assets in a trust if that would protect them. My concern is if I should have her assets in my name and I have a wreck or something and get sued could she lose her home. I guess I just need to talk to an attorney about this. Soon.
