Legal Question in Elder Law in Florida

Caregiver

I live in Florida. My mother is deceased. My father has diabetes and a

heart condition. My father got re-married and was married for 1 and a

half years before he died. Now our step-mother says we have to pay her

for giving care to our father while they were married and says there is

a law in Florida that says we have to. Is there such a law in Florida

that says the children must pay the stepmother as a caretaker to our

father while he was alive? If so, can you point me in the direction to

read this law?

Thank you.

Re: Caregiver

You have no obligation to pay the wife of your father anything for taking care of him.
