Hand Tremors: I understand your distress. Have heart to Heart Talk with your mother: •Tell her that you care for her •What you have appreciated about her •Show concern about her hands shivering, and suggest her to see Neurologist for possible diagnosis of Neurological disorders, Hyperthyroidism, Steroids, or other medications. •And to see Psychiatrist for Anxiety, Alcohol abuse, Amphetamines use , stress

Comments: You Mom likely possesses a Benign Essential Tremor, but thyroid issues can also cause this. Simple medication approaches can control. Your doctor should be able to help. (does not sound like Parkinson's)
