The question for an immigration inspector is whether your mother-in-law is able to show that her stay is temporary as she is here under a visitor visa. Trying to make a quick return to the US after being here for six months might cause a problem at the port of entry. After leaving the US, a visitor should stay outside the US for an appreciable period of time before returning. Your mother-in-law may in the alternative file for an extension of stay with USCIS.
