The answer

If fasting is difficult for your mother due to illness and harms her, she has a concession to break her fast. She must make up for the missed fasts if she is able, even during winter days. However, if her illness is chronic and she has no hope of recovery, then she must feed a poor person for each day she breaks her fast. The approximate amount for feeding is one and a half kilograms of rice.
