Question No more transfusions, how long, what happens?

My mom has MDS and she has been taken off of transfusions. That was 8 weeks ago, 2 weeks ago she had a hemoglobin of 5.8. I don't know how she does it but she can still get up and walk a little. She is in a nursing home and takes her wheel chair down the hall. Yesterday her oxygen was at 94. I know what the finale out come will be but can anyone tell me what to expect between now and then?
Mom got sick and almost died she really has not been herself. She does not realize that she is sick. She thinks that because she can walk that there is nothing wrong with her. All she wants to do is come home and we just can't have her here, the reasons are just to great to list.
