Mom will be having two procedures soon. They will be putting in a shunt tomorrow morning. This is to aid the body in removing fluid from the brain.
Information about shunts:

They will also be moving her feeding tube from her nose to her stomach. They are concerned she may be forming ulcers in from the nasal tube.
Both of these procedures were expected at some time during the recovery process.
Keep praying, God is good.
