I don't know if therapy after 5 years will help much. Usually soon after a stroke they start the physical therapy and I think there is some cognitive things they do to improve brain function (memory games, recognition things) but it all depends on what all was affected. The doctor would know best if there are things she can do to continue to improve.

I am so sorry to hear what happened to your mum. that must be so hard... Ireneo is right, you should ask the doctor for help.  there is another area on this site that is dedicated to stroke rehabilitation. You might get more responses if you posted your question there.  hope this helps.

Good luck to you :)
