Hi,
It seems that your mother is having chronic urinary tract infection with diabetic nephropathy.
As various antibiotics do not working,it seems organisms are resistant to some antibiotics.
Go for urine culture and sensitivity test.
This will give idea regarding type of organisms and antibiotics sensitive to it.
After report your doctor will go for long course of specific medicines.
Control her diabetes.
Ok and take care.
