I live with and take care of my elderly cousin. She is 75 and in poor
health. She receives a small Social Security check ($549), which
doesn't even cover her rent. I pick up the tab for all her other
expenses. I haven't worked in four years, and have been living off my
savings. She doesn't want to go to a nursing home, but I am running out
of money. I have heard that people can receive compensation for taking
care of aging relatives. If this is true, please point me in the right
direction
thank you
