my mother is pushing 81, she drinks a bottle of gin per day and then falls down and breaks something, so far this year we have had a dislocated shoulder, a broken hip, and both wrists broken (at different times) She should be in a home, but that means I shall have to sell her house to pay for care and that should be my inheritance, what can I do?
In addition her short term memory is about 5 seconds

The reason folks are so upset is the WAY you worded your question=(How dare you speak about your elder mom and hell in the same sentence.Sounds to me like she was drinking when she conceived you. If so this has been a LONG standing problem. A few of the answers above have given you some good suggestions. But use this a learning tool for YOUR kids and Grandchildren- That untreated problems just get WORSE...they don't go away!!! I take it you DON'T believe in Carma? I'm saying many prayers for your children and grandchildren to not speak of you that way-when your in need!!! May God (or your higher power) protect you:)
I completly agree with funkychic.

You may have noticed that I have deleted my previous rant. As if what you say is true you need to seek advice from both the medical and legal profession over this matter.
Medical advice:
What is best for your mother. Though do include her in the consultation.
I am surprised that with your Mothers history of broken bones that her doctor has not suggested care for your mother
Legal Advice:
How to go about getting the best possible care for your Mother without her having to sell her house.
It was very easy for me to be judgemental but I do not know what both you and your mother have had to put up with. Does she live with you? You say she is pushing 81 then you must be into your late 50's early 60's and maybe finding it hard to cope with your mothers drinking.habits.
I am sure that at times your Mother must seem like the Mother from hell, but I am equally sure that you do not mean this. Do not let the love you have for your mother turn to hate go and seek help and guidance.
Good day to you both.
One last post script: I just wonder who is going to have the last laugh here..You for thinking that we are guilible or your Mum who pops her clogs without making a will..??

Take away her gin and tell her that she has to obey your rules now or its the old fogy home for her. Isn't your peace of mind worth more than money?

Your mother needs to be in a skilled nursing facility. Her safety needs come before your inheritance. You need to do whatever is necessary to get her the care she needs. Your mother may qualify for medicare services so you should contact the senior services agency in your community and ask about your options. The number should be listed in the phone book under senior services.

If her short term memory is five seconds, then you're all set. Take her down to the bus depot and drop her off. She won't remember who you are, so she won't be able to find her way back.
An alternative is to do what the Eskimos are rumored to have done. Put her on an ice floe and watch her sail off into the sunset.

Put her in a home, and in a good one -- she deserves to be safe. She spent all those years raising you too. I understand that you'd want a good inheritance, but to be a good son or daughter you need to do whats best for your mother.

your mother sounds like a very sad woman who is crying out for help. how can you be so cruel? its her money not your inheritance. you callous person. she should be allowed to go into a decent home (regardlessof the cost) and be looked after by people who actually give a ****,unlike you. make your own money and stop waiting for your poor mother to die.

Irrespective of inheritance etc. etc. she needs professional help. Get it for her! If that means a home so be it. You have no right to deprive her of what she needs in the winter of her life for what you want in the summer of yours
