Following on from my last thread about having to lose the family home if my mother has to go into care for an extended period, I want to discuss the other options.

My mother, who is quite healthy at the moment, would like to leave me her house.

If she ends up going into care, the local authority will take the value out of her house to pay for her care.

Her choice would be to take a one way trip to a Swiss clinic and leave her asset to me.

Why is that illegal?

And we wonder why there is so much opposition to assisted suicide.

My mother and I are pragmatic.

She has had a good life and her worst nightmare is to get to a stage where someone has to wipe her arse for her.

Why is that bad ?

Because your OP was totally about you and you getting your hands on your mums money.

No, it is because my mother wants to leave me the house!

Cant you just take over the mortgage?

If mortgage paid, isn't there a way she can transfer the house to you without killing herself?

'There must be a way to protect my inheritance!'

Why don't you care for her instead?

No mortgage.,if she transfers the house to me, apparently it will be treated as cheating somehow and they will take the money somehow..

I watched my gran die two years ago. When it came to it, i dont think she cared about the indignity of having to be cared for by my dad and his sisters. She was just happy to have people around her who loved her.

Just look after her man and try make her last months as comfortable as possible. You can have the house after that, and you wont have the feeling that you just gave up on mum to obtain some property.

It's illegal to go to a Swiss Clinic? I didn't realise that.

I'm laughing, but I'm not sure if that was the intent of the post.

My mother is still a long way away from this, we still play golf together. I am 47 and she is 71. She is fine right now, there was a bit if a scare recently which made us talk about options.

It was her idea that we went to see a solicitor last week to see what needs to be done!
