As to your Aunt's money. KEEP IT IN YOUR NAME ONLY. You can always add H IF and WHEN he is back home and your M is really on the mend, until then don't do anything that jeopardizes any financial accruement you have. Sorry, I know that sounds poopy...but we women tend to soften to easily to soon, much to our own demise. Any money your H contributed to your lifestyle while married was his OBLIGATION, it wasn't charity. YOU DO NOT owe him any of the inheritance that your Aunt so generously left you. ALSO, the courts look at inheritances as solely the property of the inheritor.
