Hi,
Your mother needs treatment in intensive care unit. Culture of sputum / CSF. along with other diagnotic methods advised by expert would help in finding exact suitable antibiotics which would take care of infection&would help your mother out of risk to normal.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
