Unfortunately, that high percentage death rate is what my research turned up as well. If you want to look at it in a positive light, the survival rate is about 40%.
It's impossible to say what the prognosis is for your mother, and it would be irresponsible and unethical for me to offer such an opinion, as I'm not a doctor, but with all the unknowns regarding this disease, she has just as much chance as anyone of beating this.
The only thing you can do is wait and see, and enjoy every day you have with your mother (we should do that no matter what our mothers' health and/or prognosis).
