So we have been up to look at the house (MIL taken in to care) it's not good and needs attention.
We have removed some very very old clothes and textiles (net curtains, her clothes we know are old or do not fit,bedding and curtains)not a great deal.
I have had a call from Social Services telling us to be mindful of what we dispose of as everything will have to be sold to pay for her care, there is nothing in the house worth even £20.
We also need to be mindful of what people will think us going in the house and taking things....what do they think we are??? There is nothing of value at all, I would like to know where her jewellery is but they could not tell me that.
I feel like telling them to stick it where the sun don't shine why should we run around trying to get pennies for things and deal with selling the house which has been my husbands for the past 4 years on her insistance before she got dementia..
We were thinking for doing some work in the house to see if it would go for a better price, but again AAAGGGHHH.
I wanted to take them the deeds to the house today and say you sort it all, but then I changed my mind, calmed down and called a solicitor.
We need legal advice.
Sorry to rant.
