There is a difference between protecting assets to avoid losing an offspring's inheritance and using estate assets to take care of the owner of the assets. I have been wrangling with a stomach virus for three days and my focus is not what it should be.
My mother and my dad/step-mother hope to leave something to their children. However, I know they both would want me to use their assets to care for them and would never look to shelter their accumulated assets to save for me so they could draw medicaid assistance.
In fact, I don't think the government takes this lightly either.
