54 Years Old, No Work Experience. Where To Turn?

Hi,

 

My mother recently became a widow when we lost my father to Sepsis. He died suddenly and we were far from prepared. Due to financial hardships in the past, she was never able to purchase life insurance on him, and if it wasn't for her sister, would not have been able to even pay for his funeral. 

 

She was living on his Disability checks, and now she has absolutely no income. She has an 8th grade education and no work experience. I've searched and searched and cannot find anything to help her. My husband and I live paycheck to paycheck and cannot do anything financially for her. I don't want my mom to lose her house, but I have run out of ideas. 

 

We live in Mobile, AL. Can anyone make a suggestion? Her main concern is her mortgage. She owes about 5 grand on it, which isn't a lot, but might as well be a million when you have no money. She's so close to paying it off...
