You can try to recruit some support so this doesn't all fall on you.

If money is super tight, you can look into housing programs for people with medical conditions or income-based housing.

You can encourage your mom to rebuild ties with some other friends or family who can share the load.

There are community groups, religious support networks.

There are nonprofits dedicated to helping sick people manage their finances better.

A lot of oncology departments.

They have social workers and patient resource coordinators who are plugged into good options.

And of course, you can still help her coordinate her care.

You can advocate for her with her doctors.

You can provide emotional support all within reason.

So there's still a lot you can and should do to help your mom without turning your home into an open flop house.

And the way I'd communicate this is, I'd sit down with your mom.

You could do this with your wife if it's helpful or just one-on-one.

And I would say, Mom, we love you.

We want to support you through your treatment.

We're so happy that you're getting better.

You're not alone in this.

But with the baby coming, our home is going to need to just be the three of us.

So we need to work together over the next few months to figure out a permanent living situation for you.

Your health is trending in the right direction.
