After my husband Walter died, my son Greg and his wife Dana moved into the house he had built in 1974, claiming they didn’t want me living alone. Soon they took over my bedroom, moved me into the sewing room, and began treating the house as their own. Greg even took $300 from my pension each month.

They had spent months preparing to remove me from my own home, never realizing I had already protected myself\u2014and secured my right to stay there for the rest of my life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
