Update Your Profile
Show the nursing home and any other relevant third party who might purchase your mother's property the revocation (It must be in writing, and your mother must have had legal capacity at the time she executed it). If your mother still has capacity, she can voice her own desire to leave with you. If your mother has lost capacity due to dementia or other mental deterioration, you may need to file for guardianship for her.
