I am on disability because of multiple foot surgeries. I also have a blood clot disorder. I hurt my back the other day and realized the older I get the worse I am going to get and if something happens to me there is no one to take care of her. I have 3 brothers and do not keep in touch with her at all. I am trying to apply for Aid and Attendance so I will be able to get her into a NH but as of now I am still waiting for her DD214. They are all so expensive and I can not afford to pay for them on my own. Can someone please give me any suggestions you may have?

You've already got a good start by applying for help but it all takes time and that is especially hard when the caregiver has health problems too. Check out every contact on your state list that makes sense. These people can lead you to other resources.
Take care of yourself,

BTW, you should also change your profile to delete your mother's name; she's entitled to her privacy and it's very unwise to post the name of someone with dementia on a public forum.
