<prompt> Human: Title kind of says it. My father had a stroke yesterday. Hes been employed off and on for years, working as a subcontractor. No health insurance, no savings. Almost 63. Very overweight and in poor health. Nurses say he had a hemorrhagic stroke and were not sure what functionality he will have lost. Lots of unpaid bills already and likely mounting hospital bills with no means to pay them.We dont know if he will be able to work again. Owns a house but struggling to make payments on the mortgage. Possibly has taken loans against the house to the limit. Also has partial ownership of an inherited house. Some stacks of metal in the backyard that might be worth something. We dont really know what this all means from a financial perspective. Any advice much appreciated.Edit: thank you for all the advice. Looks like were probably headed toward medical bankruptcy. I think what were also wondering what happens when all the dust settles, if he cant work anymore. We dont know if he qualifies for social security disability benefits, given hes been a subcontractor. I cant afford to take care of him, so what can we do if he loses everything?  <response>: It sounds like it spells liquidation of assets followed by bankruptcy.
