I don't think participants of competition shows receive their prize money until the show has aired, so unfortunately that may mean that she didn't quite get to fulfil her wish to help her mum (who I believe she said was diagnosed with Parkinson's in her 40s)

…that’s just so terribly sad…</3…her mom was also diagnosed with Dementia just recently as well as her Parkinson’s disease, I think Rachel said…she wanted to give her that holiday and those memories while she was still able to have memories..although the time wasn’t there to do that and to give that holiday, she said how proud and happy her mom was in watching her on Traitors…so she had filled her with all of the beautiful memories she needed, really……very sad and I’m so glad that her mom was able to see her daughter win…
