Hi Hazel, Earth Clinic has the best and largest collection of natural arthritis remedies I have ever seen in one place on the internet and it may definitely be worth taking a look at to see if any of them may be of interest to you and your mother. Here is a link to that collection of over 100 natural arthritis remedies :

Because of your mother's age and additional health conditions, any remedies that you and your mother want to consider, should be cleared with her doctors to make sure that they will not be contraindicated for your mother and that they will not cause problems with any meds she may be taking now or or in the future.
My personal favorite is the Borax remedy because it has kept my severe psoriatic arthritis in remission for over 15 years with regular use and it has helped many friends with various form of arthritis.
Best wishes to the both of you!

Greetings Hazel of San Jose,
Sometimes its an energy problem. My mother was always complaining about energy so her doctor put her on Ensure, the Ensure Plus.
Amazon.com: Ensure Plus Vanilla Nutrition Shake With Fiber, Meal Replacement Shake, 24 Pack : Health & Household
Ensure has gotten quite expesive, however see if this will give her the strength to stand if you have not already done so. And of course choose the other remedies for the pain. For pain I used "MSM Cream" on my mother's knees, Art has a Melatonin Lotion that may be easy to use.

Have an experienced acupuncturist come to your home and examine your mom and do accupuncture. We have two sources of energy, to simplify it, one we are born with, and it is finite and we get energy from food, water, sunlight. If the energy we aare born with is depleted, acupuncturist would be able to see that and act accordingly.
We had to move mom across the globe after she had stroke at 84. The acupuncturist was able to tap into her innate energy resources, but only 3-4 sessions, for there were not much left…we had 3-4 weeks to move mom, after that she would not be able to travel. Mom responded to acupuncture very well. She also had a 10 days course of injections to improve her brain function after the stroke (not available in the US). Mom did really well on a 9hr flight, 3 days in a hotel, then another 4 hr flight and 5 hr in car. She only lived 5 weeks after that, but she didn’t die alone, was well taken care of.
I’d recommend LDN - low dosage naltrexone for your mom. Do it ASAP. People with arthritis respond very well to LDN, sometime pain is reduced overnight. There is a recent post how to get LDN prescription.
