I would find what is the safest distance.
If it is few feet, then get a Good LCD monitor that in a size that is workable from this distance. From 4-5 feet away a 26" LCD monitor is workable, and you can manipulate the size of the fonts and icons with windows settings to make it bigger than the default if needed.
Connect the monitor to the Laptop's Video Out port, and disable the laptop's native screen (F- something) so there is no need for KVM or the like.
Good luck, and happy holidays to your Mom.
