I am basically starting over at 44. This past year I quit my job to help take care of my mother who had surgery and then medical complications. After 4 months in the hospital she passed away. I was self employed and trying to commute each week to visit her before quitting my job. I was not eligible for unemployment or family medical leave, so for 8 months I had no income. During that time I had my own surgery and my self-employed health insurance did not cover as much as I thought. I recently got a job and am trying to play catch up but continue to struggle to make ends meet. Am helping my father adjust to life without my father. I would appreciate any help or info...I have been searching for an attorney also who will take a look at my mom's possible medical malpractice case against a large hospital in L.A. Thanks for listening.
