Friend, your sister might be going through depressive disorder . You didnt mention her age and marital status. Shakiness can be due to anxiety or due to her weakened status which itself due to prolonged illness. Its important to rule out any h/ o abuse. Psychiatrist should be consulted in such situation.
Next Steps
All routine investigations needs to be conducted including serum TSH.
