She does, but I am not going to stop taking care of her, hence the need for me to be vaccinated. Unless you are certain that everyone in your immediate family and circle of friends has a functioning immune system, you should get vaccinated.

How about focusing on an iron-clad process whereby people like your mother are protected/quarantined vs. setting up a false scenario where everyone else has to take a relatively untested vaccine with a much, much higher ratio of side effects and deaths than normally tested vaccines?

My mother does quarantine at home. I got the vaccine so I could take care of her with a lower risk of infecting her. Nowhere in my post did I advocate a vaccine mandate, just said it was a good idea if you are in contact with an immunocompromised person.
