Caregiver Faces Foreclosure After 13 Years of Caring for Mother
Judith Sherwood, a caregiver for her mother for 13 years, is facing foreclosure on her New Jersey home. Sherwood moved into her childhood home to care for her mother, who had taken out a reverse mortgage to cover medical expenses. After her mother's death, Sherwood received a foreclosure notice, owing over $540,000. Despite working since her mother's passing, Sherwood cannot afford the debt. The situation highlights the financial strain caregivers face, often neglecting their own financial planning while providing care.
