As an adult, you can do another adult adoption so you biological mother is reinstated as your legal mother. You can inherit from her as it is, but doing an adult adoption would reinstate her to a status where if something happened to you, she would legally be your Mom.
There are NOT many steps to an adult adoption, but it would be much easier to do with an attorney in or near the county where you live.
