So what looked like a lot of money is already spoken for with bills and shopping.
My mother is 83, has cancer and worked every single day of her life (up to the age of 65) to bring up 7 children.
The money she gets, she has earned.

Good for her she deserves everything she gets and probably more to be honest, but for every deserving case like your mum ,there are 10 more who dont deserve a penny
