For my mom. No insurance. Trying to get her on Medicaid but for FUCKS SAKES they just throw every fucking roadblock possible out

At least she's getting disability starting this month, which will help me tremendously

What do you mean for your mom?
She's hundreds of thousands in debt which pretty much means I am too

She stays with me so I can look after her

iirc that isnt how debt works, the debt dies with her. If shes old enough, fuck it and dont pay anything back imo

yeah I had a similar problem, it's bullshit

"Oh you ensured your mother didn't die of starvation homeless in the streets, therefore you have her debt now" makes me wonder how many Ayn Rand types just left their parents to die in misery

broken system

^ Hey now that's completely unfair!

Not to sound insensitive, my mother went through cancer as well. Just saying from a financial standpoint

Technically, it goes to her estate, but sounds like she probably doesn't have anything they could go after at this point.

Debt won't get transferred to you in her passing.

Any assets in her name would likely be claimed by any debt collectors though.

The fact that she has this debt for trying to live longer pisses me off

yeah Medicaid is really, really strict and has lots of checks in place to help prevent abuse.

It shouldn't be like this. Like you said we are lagging, severely. This shouldn't be a fucking thing in one of the wealthiest countries on Earth

And thank you
