What is the name of your state? KY
Uncle in nursing home (medicaid) paying. He has no one other than myself to
take care of his diabeted 9 yr old dog. Uncle wants me to take care of dog as
long as the dog lives. I buy special food and give it shots. He claims I can use
the proceeds from his house to repay me (I am POA). Medicaid will not force
sell of home because it is in uncle's name and his friend (who is very old also).
I told him I did not think this was true, because I was told that Medicaid gets
their money first and then if any is left over I could use it for care of dog.
Uncle been in nursing hom for 7 months ($5,000 month), and the house is
only going to sell for about $30,000 (still uses space heater for heat). I
do not believe there will be any left over for dog care. Is there anything I
can do except pay the expenses for his dogs care out of my pocket?What is the name of your state?
