She can't walk on her prosthetic legs except with a walker and not far. She can drive now but can't get her wheelchair in and out of her car so she still needs an escort and the house is not handicapped friendly in places like the kitchen. I do the lion's share of cooking, shopping, housework, and yardwork; go with her to most of her Dr. visits and we have 7 cats! 4 are over 14 and they've been going to the vet a lot lately. I might be able to work part time soon but a little help for me now would be good. Taking care of ma is a reward in itself and we get to keep the property but I could use a few bucks to get some of my needs met. Clothes, dental work. Medicaid pays to pull teeth and get dentures but not fillings...go figure. I want to keep the teeth I have left!
Utilities will help discount services. As a Medicaid recipient Comcast has internet for $10. My nephew was able to get a refurbished laptop thru them for $150.
At 77 with already amputations, your Mom may decline. My GF was a child diabetic and had her leg amputated. Then she had kidney problems and dialysis. If it wasn't for the cats, I say sell the property. Buying something on one floor and easy to get around and keep up.
