I know how it feels to notice your dog is getting old. Just keep up with discipline and spend lots of time handling the dog physically. There is a white shepherd down the street who has gone blind in old age. I approach her slowly and give her plenty of time to recognize me. She growls pretty vicious when I first walk up to her. They need to get used to people touching them and walking with them when they can't see, so they don't become reclusive.
"There are two things which cannot be attacked in front: ignorance and narrow-mindedness. They can only be shaken by the simple development of the contrary qualities. They will not bear discussion."
Lord John Emerich Edward Dalberg Acton
Perhaps she's not only blind but hard of hearing as well? So when she "sees" shadows coming through the door or coming towards her, she just doesn't know who it is because she can't really make out that person's face or hear that person's voice.
Please beg your Mom to take her to the vets. Perhaps you can show her all the posts people made here on PT. Maybe that will convince her.
Good luck & keep us posted on her condition.
