YOU NEED TO TALK TO AN ESTATE LAWYER RIGHT NOW! BEFORE that estate is distributed! Spend a small part of THAT money trying to protect the rest of it, or it might all be lost!

Anyone reading this who has a disabled child: You MUST have a will with special provisions to keep this from happening. Sometimes some of the money can be salvaged after the person's death, but sometimes it is all lost.
