knee surgery and oxygen

my mom had a knee replacement, when it was time for her to be sent home she told them she was having a hard time breathing so they sent her home with an oxygen tank - is this normal?

Unusual, but not unheard of.  I suggest you check with her treating surgeon, or her primary care physician for more details.
