This is very sad but how did Laura treat her children? Could she have been a horrible abusive mother? You get back what you put in.

the worst thing that you could do is put your love on in a nursing home when you put your loved one in a nursing home just like you just gave them away you gave up on them and you don't want to be bothered with them anymore the same people that gave you life that birth you and the only thing you can give them in return is to throw them away they sad I would never ever do that to my loved one cuz I wouldn't want my loved one to do that to me. As for the nursing home paying for her burial they had to do that cuz once you admit a person in the nursing home whatever money they getting a month & their property automatically goes to that nursing home so that lady pay for her own burial she's pain free now& with all her love ones that passed before her may she RIP🙏🏾🕊️😇.

My neighbor was an old woman whose family abandoned her. I fed her took of her house and yard for 4 years . Same thing happened she passed and her family refused to help . I paid for her funeral arrangements . She asked to be cremated. About 3 weeks after her service I was contacted by an attorney who informed me me that left her estate to me in its entirety . Turned out she had an estate worth a great deal including money and Realestate all solvent. Her family never knew.

I can see this happening. So many of the older people like me are never even called by our family. When we die many of them will rush to the lawyers office to collect what they can. The elder people are still only good for giving. A kind word or a call means a lot to many of them but the younger people can't see that.

this is what pisses me off. Every nurse or CNA will know immediately what I'm saying. They drip their parent into a nursing home and just stop coming. Maybe show up once a month to get them to sign a check or paperwork. Then you don't see them. As time goes on it stops all together. The next time you see them is when their parent is dying or had died. Not alone because they have us and we don't let anyone die alone. We give them the care and dignity they deserve as human beings as they pass. When the family shows up they cry and carry on . They are so devastated. The louder they cry the longer they have been away. That's the guilt. With some they start adding up the inheritance before the body has been removed. We stay quiet but we know. We seen you. We watch. Don't worry , we had them. We did right by them while you pretend you did.

It’s sad that people can do that to their elder. Throw them away when they are no longer useful… I worked in a home where a woman was dropped off by her own daughter and was told by her daughter that she would come see her the next day. That woman woke up early every morning to get ready for an outing with her daughter. She was a classy woman at that, so she’d fix her hair, put on her makeup, white gloves and purse. She’d be so excited to see her daughter and would sit in her wheel chair parked by the doors waiting for her daughter who never showed up. I remember how excited she was, she’d refuse to eat because her daughter “was taking her out”… she eventually passed in her sleep. No one visit from her daughter. 🥺🥺 I used to feel so sad for her when I’d see here sitting by the doors looking at every car that drove by…. We should never treat our elder that way, they lived through so much in life and history. They earned the right to be respected and treated with dignity ♥️♥️

This is a horrible disjustice to this woman! I don’t care if she was a bad mother, if she didn’t abandon or abuse her children , then maybe she did her best. Parenthood doesn’t come with a “how to “ book. And nobody deserves to be left alone when they have family. My friend didn’t like to visit her mom because she said she doesn’t know me anyway. I told her she needed to put her feelings aside and think of her mom. I hope my kids will never abandon me.i wasn’t the best or worst mom but i feel guilty for having to work 2 jobs and not being there sometimes.

I took care of my mom and dad until they passed away. It was so worth the 5 years I got to spend with them as my brother moved out of state as he didn’t want to assist them. They left me iwith great memories of their last years. I will forever cherish them.

I was thankful for the nursing home for my great grandmother. She couldn’t walk anymore and she was blind and almost 100. We couldn’t be with her 24 hours a day.

We only know this little piece of her life. What would the kids say if they were asked why they abandoned her? There are always 2 sides. Maybe this was the mother's fate.

I worked in the healthcare industry for years,it's a nice concept,however nursing homes are about the all mighty dollar. I doubt if a Nursing facility paid for the cost of a funeral and burial. Upon admission a person's assets are disclosed, if she had money it would be used for care,if not provide pay,the patient has to keep a certain amount, not go over over they will lose thier benefits. The state provides limited money towards burials.
