What do you suggest if my mom is sick/has lupus and she doesn't take care of herself! why?

See details: I suggest leaving her alone. People have the right to make their own decisions after their health. Brow beating her will only stiffen her resistance.

She does not: want to take care of herself and you cannot force her to. You can encourage her to take care of yourself telling her that you love her and care for her and worry about her. Try the soft approach .Best of luck.
