Hugs. Sorry to hear that she's not helping herself. (I'm wondering if a psychiatrist or psychologist could go out there, assess her, and maybe some therapy and some anti-depressants would help? It's also got to be frustrating that your body is rebelling against you, and you can't do what you used to.)
Also wondering if there is some way you and your siblings could get together and have her sent to some sort of assisted living facility. That way she'd have someone around to talk to (other residents) and there would be staff to help with her needs.
OTOH, those places can be expensive. Y'all might have to sell her home and such to get her enough funds.
And Medicare sucks. My mom does better when she has psychical therapy, but Medicare doesn't want to pay for much. Or they want to see great improvement, but my mom is never going to be able to get out of a wheelchair on her own.
