This really depends on how it is titled. You should see an attorney as there may be Medicaid and long term care issues...

I agree with Mr. Green. I hesitate a little to answer because you mention that you own a home together, but then state that you name is on the "deed" and want to keep the proceeds. If your mother is not mentally competent, you may be facing some financial elder abuse issues down the road.
