Dear Ravindra it seems that your mother has multiple brain infarct.It needs to undertake a brain Angio MRI.The most probably diagnoses is vasculitis or a hematologic disease(blood coagulation pathology).I advice you to do some blood test such as Protein c, s (at least). Depending on their result we can advice you about the treatment and the prognosis.Wish you all the best
