I was talking with my cousin yesterday and realized that when I was discussing care options with her Mom last fall, I totally forgot to tell her about the Veteran's Aid & Attendance Benefit which also provides care for Surviving Spouses.
My uncle served in World War II, so she definitely qualifies. I asked my cousin to tell her Mom about the benefit, as I know it will be a weight off her shoulders to have another avenue to pay for care, should the need arise.
Our website includes the downloadable application forms for this benefit:
