somthing you might want to do is go to the employment office. A lot of them offer free training for displaced and disabled workers that would allow her to learn a new skill that she can physically handle and then help her find a job when she is done. They don't charge for this. My mom was going to do this and then got really sick and her eyesight went to hell so it would be very hard for her to do any job now. She is on SSI, but like your mom, she is old-school and proud and took a while to adjust because she didn't want people's help. So you might call the employment office or the social security/disability office and see what they say.

just a thouht, hope things work out for her.
