HI Thank for asking to HCM I really appreciate your concern and looking to the history given here I could say that your mother is already 94 years old and this is nothing to worry because every body fear to death and this is not new in the history of mankind, and this is not the problem so why to take this seriously because even if some body fear to death still this is unavoidable, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
