Sorry to hear of your mother's injury, Baz. It seems a bit counterintuitive, but frequently even elderly with broken hips will undergo surgery. Not so much for the expectation or hope that they walk again, but more for comfort measures. Even being rolled around in bed for toilet care/hygiene can be very painful with a broken/non-immobilized hip. The surgery is meant to provide fracture stabilization and pain reduction, to allow for hygiene.
