I was living in Florida and working 2 jobs when my 78 yr old mother who has MS, is paraplegic, an amputated leg (above the knee), had 2 strokes and 2 heart attacks called to ask if I would care for her. Without hesitation, I came home. Now that I have no time what so ever to work I have no money for my self. It is a 24/7 job. I can't leave her alone to go to work. She doesn't really get all that much money a month from her retirement so it's really hard to pay someone to come into the home to help out. Can I get paid thru the state or government for caring for her even if I live in her home?
We get this question at least 10 times weekly; truth is that you really need to do the research on this yourself for your own area. Good luck.
