Welcome to hcm,
It is not actually a real water and it is not actual plasma.but it is simply a body fluid with much water content. Any way I don't want you people to have misunderstanding in such petty matters and the actual thing is to treat her for this ailment.
She may need proper cleaning and may need antibiotics also
So a geriatric examination is needed for her at this age. Hope this explains
