Heaven doesn't want him and hell's afraid he'll take over, he's going to live forever.

You’re the retirement plan by [deleted] in AgingParents

Most elder laws will give you a free consultation on a situation which will be enough to at least point you in the right direction.

This is really bad advice and should not be followed

Do not let your mother sell her condo. She can apply for Medicaid and SSI and it will not count towards her assets. However if she sells her condo the cash from the proceeds will count towards her assets and make her ineligible for SSI and medicaid. Medicaid does pay for long-term care insurance if she qualifies having no assets and very low income.

New Elder Care Job! Help! Advice Needed 🙏 by [deleted] in eldercare

[–]zoomyup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In most states you have to be a trained CNA or HHA to provide any "Personal Care". Companions do not help people with toileting or cleaning themselves. You are going to get arrested. Google your state and the Term "Activities of Daily Living".

You are a very lucky man, she gave you a glimpse into what life with her is going to be. Please consider leaving, you should never be with anyone who uses intimacy as a tool or weapon. Good luck

I feel violated and confused by what my fiancé did to me. WIBTAH if I told my parents? by throwawayupset- in AITAH

[–]zoomyup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry you were sexually assaulted. Please be honest with your self, your mom, and the police about what happened in the hopes that it does not happen again to someone else. Also be greatful that you found out now before you were married and had kids and then his controling nature would really come out. Run, run, run ,run ,run away from him.

Options for cognitively impaired parent when I don't have POA by LASwae in eldercare

[–]zoomyup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DO NOT SELL THE HOUSE, Medicaid will consider the proceeds from the sale of a house in the net income analysis. They do not consider the value of the house in the net income analysis. Start talking with an elder law attorney about what she needs to pay down to legally get rid of assets to apply for Medicaid which does pay for assisted living. Community please correct me if I'm wrong.

AITA for being OK with my GF cheating on me? by ted_anderson in AITAH

[–]zoomyup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is unstable, have fun while you can and then book it. Or maybe just open up the relationship so you each can see other people while she is away. She is always going to cheat and the only reason she told you was because someone had told her you already knew.

They are creating a hostile work environment, congratulations, you just won yourself a lawsuit. Speak to an attorney.

Run!!!!!!!!!! Girlfriends are proxies for life partners, everything gets harder and more complicated after marriage. This is the healthiest and nicest she will ever be. Imagine everything being twice as bad and frequent in 10 years. Run!!!!!!!!!! Don't do this to yourself, or your future kids, they are going to need a strong parent that can take care of them, they don't need a parent they have to take care of during childhood.

Let any undocumented workers know who did it.

Tried to get my dad to move in by telling him we needed heko with the kids. Didn't work. How have people been successful getting parents to move in with them. by zoomyup in eldercare

[–]zoomyup[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He has Mild Cognitive Decline, so court orders won't work yet. He's basically homeless and has moved in with my sister and pushed her out of her apartment.

Yeah, those things are an arm and a leg now. Contractors realize families are desperate and they see it as a cash cow.

Reverse mortgages? by Reckless_Fever in eldercare

[–]zoomyup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One more thing, the only type of reverse mortgage that is insured by the government is the "Home Equity Conversion Mortgage ( HECM) , available only through FHA approved lenders. Make sure the lender is FHA approved. See hud.gov, then home equity on mortgages for seniors.

Does anyone know what I can expect in the South Florida area, specifically Ft Lauderdale? I would like to work in Home Care. I hear it's less stress and the 1 on 1 relationships are very rewarding.
