Everyone is different. There are some people who sensitive to showering . Then there are the ones who have no trouble. . You way may want to look into shower chairs , if you’re going to shower

You might try venting the window if there is one. This will get rid of steam. Use Liquid soap on the puffer ball. Relaxation is the key. Do it before Mom's awake or the night before . ericthom3

I don't think that taking a shower, in itself, can cause seizures. It may be the room or water temperature, as others have said.
