If a mother grants an apartment to her son during her lifetime, while she is of sound mind, and the son takes possession and seizes it, then the grant is valid and effective. As for the money from the land, it belongs to the mother as long as she is alive, and it should be spent on her expenses and needs. Whatever remains of it after her death belongs to the heirs. The son is not obliged to spend on her from his private wealth as long as she possesses what suffices her.
