Legal Question in Family Law in Massachusetts
Elderly caregiver
I have been the primary caregiver for my mother for the past 15years. I live in her house. When she passes do I have any rights regarding the amount of time I can stay in her house?

Most likely no.
There would have to be something more than what you said.
If you have questions or need help contact me.

If your mother does not already have an estate plan, it sounds like it may be time to put one in place.
Assuming it is your mother's wish that you be allowed to remain in the home after her passing, an estate plan would provide her with a number of options. She should speak with an attorney.
