You need to get her to a serious doctor for a complete gerontological
workup. Her behavior may indicate any number of possible conditions.
Her behavior is not normal, and you probably realize that much. She
could be simply depressed or she could be in early alzheimers. The other
possibilities include mini-strokes or NPH or even something as small as a
thyroid deficiency. You need to find out which it is and if it requires
treatment.

Her behavior is no anomaly, not rare; happens all the time everywhere. Not,
necessarily "abnormal". She is trying to tell her caregivers that it is
time for her to leave them and go to whatever may lay beyond this earthly
realm. It is hard for the caregivers but it is part of life.

I've experienced similar situations several times. People of that age,
particularly in the stated condition, know more about death than the
so-called experts and professionals who prattle on about this way, and that
way, to prolong, prolong, prolong, a process that should be allowed to go
naturally; hopefully in the way that the person themself would want it to
go.
