Philly cellar chaining

This is kinda topical to my family at the moment. My Aunt is very ill (as in cancer ill) and in order to get her son into an assisted living situation, she basically has to say that she can't care for him anymore at all, and turn him over to the state, which effectively means, she will no longer have any control over how he lives, even if she survives long term. This has been really hard for her to do but she really doesn't have any choice.

My Aunt has had a pretty tragic life. Some things just aren't fair.
