My husband has early onset with vascular and progressed quickly after diagnosis last year to the point he is not able to drive or work. We claim PIP and Universal Credit but as we own our own home we do not get any help with the mortgage. With my salary I can cover all the household bills with just enough left over for food and petrol. What I want to know is if/when he eventually has to go into a nursing home will I lose both payments? Without them I couldn't afford to pay all the bills and know that if I have to sell the house the local authority would probably want his share towards nursing fees which means I couldn't afford to buy anywhere else. Has anyone else been in this situation and can offer any advice.
