Kathy,
You're in a very difficult position, but you might start by talking to your Mom's doctor to get an appraisal of her condition the last time he/she saw her and a summary of her medications. Then you'll be in a better position to talk to your aunt about the kind of care your Mom may need.
If you think your Mom is not really capable of making her own decisions (even though those decisions might not be the ones you hope she'd make), then I agree with Zoe that Adult Protective Services might be the way to go.
Hope this helps.
Ruth
