Often times tenants have divorce, car accidents, loss of employment and health issues.One of the things landlords have to be careful about is tenants want to make their problems the landlords problem.First your want to let her know that you are truly sorry that she is having medical problems.If you are wanting to waive some of the rent is totally up to you, but you do need to remind her that she still has financial obligations and needs to see what arrangements she could do to have the rent paid right away.If you have any emergency contacts for her on file youu may want to check with them and see if they are able to help her.I would also recommend that you get a real estate attorney that is familiar with evictions and consult with the attorney.

There are higher yields that can be had from notes other than mortgages, risk and reward need to be understood but auto loans, financing receivables, lease financing and even medical accounts are profitable.

My wife has a degree in the medical field but only spent a short amount of time in the workforce before devoting her time to raising our child.

The dreaded but oh so real Medi-Cal debt.  

We had gotten behind because of medical issues.
