Hi There

After reading the details provided by you i understand your concern for your mothers health. Considering her age and the procedure she has gone through and her present status, to be honest she is not in a good condition.

I would like to advise you to take her to hospital as she will be requiring a Holistic treatment approach and well as IV fluids and probably NASOGASTRIC tube feeding as she is not able to eat and also she has lost weight.

I wish her good health
