Medicaid provides "in home" care. Some states may pay a family member. Call ur local Social Service Dept and see if Mom hits the criteria.

There is no real way to get paid full time from any source other than your mom's own funds. Whatever funding you do find won't be for full-time and will probably be minimum wage. Has she been assessed to see if she qualifies for AL or MC? Then you can help her apply for Medicaid. She would get full-time care in a facility and you would have your full-time life. Your spouse has priority over your mother so do not take this LO along for a very difficult ride. Caregiving is not easy on marriages. I wish you peace in your heart as you make important decisions.
