More details to this question:
Years ago, I signed over my house to my x-husband so he could obtain a reverse mortgage. The legal paperwork was created that if he ever leaves the house or dies, the house comes back to me. He now has dementia and is preparing to enter a facility for long term care. I do not know where to begin or what my legal standing is with the house. I need help navigating this problem.

Ask a local elder lawyer to review the documents and make sure that this does not constitute a gift disqualifying yor former spouse for Medicaid. You can find one near you on the website of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (www.naela.org).
