    First off, trim that dry flower stalk, it's not needed. Next repot. You can soak the roots for 20 minutes to help make them flexible. Assess root health (looks like it'll be dehydrated) and trim away any dead roots. Repot into orchid bark (main substrate) with a bit of sphagnum (to help with moisture retention if needed). Make sure the crown (where all the leaves meet) is above the soil, and allow the top most roots to get some air. Your mom had it in good light before; that leaf color is ideal. The leaves are wrinkled, so it's been dehydrated in the past. When watering, get water directly on the roots, and never in the crown
