Hi,
It seems that she is having generalized cerebro-bacillar insufficiency and this is age related.
At this age a person develops some phobia giving different fears,thinking which can not be cured or avoided.
Consult psychiatrist and seek his advice.
Do not allow to keep pillow while sleeping which might improve cerebro-bacillar circulation, might improve her condition a bit.
Ok and take care.
