Bit of a personal one. A few years back my mother in law (now 94) needed to move into a care home.
She and we did the right thing. We sold her house. She got a big old lump of cash for that. Best part of half a million. No sense crying over a spilt inheritance.
Anyway, she is now down to her last £100k. Costs are around £5k a month. So by Christmas 2021 there will be nothing left. What happens then? Do we have to do battle with the authorities to pay her fees? Will the government just step up? Or will they insist she moves somewhere cheaper? (If it's the latter I'll be mightily irked)
