Your mother probably has kidney damage because of diabetes and Hypertension. Although the damage is progressive, it can be slowed down by strict diabetes and blood pressure control. Also avoid dehydration, excess salt and drugs which can cause damage to kidneys such as pain killers. Regular exercise and weight control are helpful too.
