Her body, her life, her decision. Just start making plans for the funeral.

Your mother is 60, almost certainly legally competent from what you say, and has already said that “she just wanted to let the next infection kill her”. She has a long history of not controlling her problems, and you have not been successful in getting her to do better.

I’d suggest that you ask her again if she still wants to avoid surgery and let her problems kill her. Be blunt. This time it’s for real. If she says that she still wants this, you can’t force it. It would be a good idea to get appropriate witnesses, and perhaps to contact APS to let them know that you are giving up.

Ask her what you can do to help her make her remaining life as good as possible.
