For one Redditor, the family home isn't just a house — it's the result of decades of sacrifice. After losing her dad three years ago, she explained that her mom is all she has left. Her biggest fear? That the home her parents "worked so hard to have" could slip away if her mom ends up in a nursing home.
"My concern is this, she's 64 and will be 65 this November and will soon be in Medicare. The house still needs like 10-15 more years to pay off the mortgage," she wrote. "Say in the future, she is placed in a nursing home and then passes away. Are there laws in Connecticut that would let Medicare take the house?"
