I'm so sorry. It's really hard when they get upset. Even when they can't remember exactly what caused the anxiety it can linger. At one point, I had to cut off all information that was upsetting.

Blessings.
Try writing texts to her regularly with photos and ilinks to interesting appropriate reading if she is able to use her cell or computer.
Hugs, that is a difficult situation...the telephone idea may be easier for all. Take care
