houses: Why a Reverse Mortgage? - 07/06/07 04:51 PM
My brother and his wife have entered into a situation that nobody would want to be in, they have a neighbor who has fallen very ill and they are the only ones who are there to "take care of him".  This is not something that they have to do but more like something that they feel compelled to do, the elderly neighbor is old and is totally alone.  At this point, he is unable to fully take care of himself and Medicare has made it clear that they will absorb and drain any money that he has in his name.  Its … (4 comments)
