My neighbor’s son promised to take care of her if she would sign over the apartment to him. As soon as he had the paperwork in his hands, he took off right away. Now I’ve started looking after her to get her housing. Is that possible?
I’ve known her for twenty years. She was always sick, the ambulance was often standing under our doorway. And heart attacks, and strokes, and diabetes. My neighbor was always complaining to me about her fate, saying her son didn’t want to help. He only comes to get money, and has no interest in his mother’s health. She hoped that after the re-registration of the apartment he would change his attitude towards her, but he did not coddle his mother. Now he is sitting in the city and wants his mother to die as soon as possible, to sell her real estate.
I felt sorry for her, because she can’t even move around without help. I don’t have a lot of time, but I applied to the social services. They wouldn’t let me, they said she had a son who was able to take care of her. No one cares that he ran away from the old lady and left her to die. I realized that no one cared about her situation, so I started helping her myself.
For about six months I run to her after work. I cook, clean, do laundry, change clothes, read books. She can’t even go to the toilet by herself after the last stroke. This is gratitude from her son, whom she raised alone and invested all her money, energy, time in him.
Many acquaintances openly ask me why I try so hard. I do not hide my intentions, because I see nothing wrong with it. Many people take care of lonely old people, and they then give them their property. So I decided to get an apartment in this way, I can’t run around renting for the rest of my life. But I don’t know if I can overturn the will. He does not take care of his relative, does not keep in touch with her, but he has the documents. I mean, I support her with my own money, I’m entitled to some kind of compensation. I have more rights to real estate than a blood heir. After my neighbor’s death, can they give the apartment to me, not my son?
