"money changes everything"

[Jolie40]

Wish me luck, friends. The conversation has started in earnest about finding paid care for my mom, and I anticipate that there might be some bumps as Mom and my siblings and I discuss the money issues.

she ended up in nursing home
sibling in charge sold house & it sold for over asking price (when housing was nuts)
so that paid costs

is there a house to be sold?

My mom owns a house, but she has promised it to my sister (via transfer on death deed), so I think it's likely that my sister would not be keen on selling the house. I just hope that my siblings will make the transition from "Mom has enough money to pay for anything" to "yes, it's a good idea to look at her finances before we decide how much she can afford to pay for care."
