A man’s remains were found last week inside of his mother’s home in Midwood, according to police.

A relative found the body, or what was left of it, at 2111 Avenue N (and East 21st Street) on Thursday, September 15, at around 1:30pm while getting belongings for the mother, who had fallen and been hospitalized, [according to a report by PIX.](http://pix11.com/2016/09/16/sons-skeletal-remains-found-in-womans-home-in-brooklyn-police-sources/?ref=bklyner.com)

The dead man, whose name hasn’t been released, was a livery cab driver, and would have turned 51 last week. He was terminally ill, and is believed to have died of natural causes, [according to the Daily News.](http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/brooklyn/brooklyn-man-rotted-skeleton-found-elderly-mother-home-article-1.2795623?ref=bklyner.com)

He was last seen in 2008, after getting into a car accident, according to PIX.

One of the man’s relatives told police they hadn’t seen him in 20 years, according to the Daily. A neighbor told the Daily that the mother is a “recluse.” The neighbor also mentioned a tan Ford Explorer that has been parked in the driveway for years without ever moving.

“She never said hello. She always walking down the street with a grocery bag,” the neighbor told the Daily. “She would walk looking down. Something about her always seemed a little weird.”

The cause of death hasn’t been determined by the Medical Examiner yet.
