marry an unattractive 64 year old and drink your cat's pee every morning for breakfast in order to save her

Sacrificing personal comfort to save a parent's life is a profound moral obligation — the conditions are extreme, but the alternative is losing your mother permanently
Most people who recognize that the question is about their own mother choose to endure almost anything rather than watch a parent die when they could prevent it

Let her die

A loving parent would likely not want their child to live miserably on their behalf — the sacrifice demanded may not be what your mother would actually choose for you
The conditions required are permanent and extreme; quality of life for the living is a genuine moral consideration, not mere selfishness
Death is a natural inevitability — the conditions demanded would only delay it while permanently diminishing the quality of the chooser's own life
