Depression is usually associated with comorbidities like DM type 2 , so treatment for Diabetes and for orthopedic problem should be continue. You may suggest her a comination of Escitalopram10mg+ clonazepam 0.5 mg One tab daily at bed time under guidance and suggestion of a psychiatrist , as this is safer in diabetic patients and this will cure her sleeping pronblems too along with antidepressant action. hope this answer helps you.
