Help! My mom is in the hospital post-op and suffering!

My mom had surgery Wednesday and is still in the hospital. She is suffering from a high fever, unmanageable pain, and total exhaustion. Her spirits are very very low. She won't do her breathing exercises and is talking about dying. My surgery was in August and I had no complications, very little pain and found my hospital stay to be restful and easy. Is it normal for my mom to be suffering so badly. Her surgery was open. Mine Lap. She was also having a revision. She was under for several hours. I was only under for 60 minutes. Is what she is going through normal for what she's had done to her? Help! I'm really worried!
