i agree with rubyee that it's important how she's handling the situation with her mother. It's a bad time to ask someone out when they're depressed, not only cause they might say no but they might jump into the relationship to try and make them feel better, which creates a kind of codependancy that isn't healthy. I say be a friend to her in this trying time, and give her an oppurtunity to develop the same feelings for you. Don't wait too long though, in the tragic possibility that her mother dies, she probably will be depressed and you'll have a lot longer wait.
