The trust was to pay for my taxes and to keep me in this home should I fail. The Gov. would not let me keep those funds from the trust no matter how it was worded. They would let me keep no monies at all if there was any way for them to benefit me, which they did. I ran out of money due to all my medical problems in 09. That was the last year I could pay my taxes. The SSDI check is $440. I don't care who hears it. I pay 400 to my son to pay him back for last years taxes, and of course to pay him back for this years. I now will never be able to pay my taxes, much less insurace which was cancelled.
The lawyer who made the trust had no idea of anything related to the social services agencies. what he made was a document that held me to a trust which the gov. said I could not keep. but must use until all funds are below @2,000. Only then did I get SSDI in 2010. I had been paying the 20% of all my bills before that. I could not get medicaid until funds were gone. You loose your coverage if you fail to pay the 20% of medicare so I did, no choice if I want treatment. So the trust only has my house in it now. The attorney who helped me to get my benefits, determined how much rent I would need to pay, in order to get my food stamps, a decent amount, and pay back my son for the taxes. I can't afford it here, and have not been able too since I became disabled in 2003. The trust was meant for taxes not to support me. Mom thought that If I worked hard and put into the system, that when I fail the system would help me. That did not occur. The trust has been used against me from its conception, and I have proof that is not what my mother wanted for me. The lawyer who wrote it wont help because I now have no money. Believe me he got lots of money for the trust and health documents he wrote for me. He refused to help when I ran out, and contested some of the stuff he put in there. He also made my trust based on what I was able to do according to my mothers trust. I tried to by-pass aaron and shannon, my daughter and son-in law, because they remeoved me from their lives. If nothing else, this home will go to my good son, and no profit will go to my daughter and her husband. they already got enough from my mother. No conservator was ordered, none mentioned to me. Hope that helps with your questions, it is all a mess. ginnie
