Diabetologist 's  Response
welcome to hcm,
your mother seems to be suffering from renal failure. you have to maintain a strict intake of less than 1Litre /day of fluids . lot of fluids administered can result in pulmonary overload. get her 2 d ECHO done , to know about her cardiac ejection fraction and systolic/ diastolic dysfunction. repeat her CHEST x-ray and ABG. if her CO2 remains high , then she is suffering from respiratory failure as well and you may need to use BI PAP machine for that. send me the details after all the tests. i may be able to help you then.
