You have to give her vitamin D (easily available in the market) and see that her overall nutritional support is good. Let her have a balanced diet. Your doctor might have already prescribed the necessary medications. You can also add milk and dairy products which are of low-fat nature. Regular medical checkup is also important to assess her general health. You can add Homeopathy also as it is very safe and beneficial in old age (to maintain good metabolism and immunity.) Call me if needed.
