PH,

No one knows for sure what this means. It could be total coincidence. It could mean absolutely nothing. There is no way to tell.

My guess, and it's just a guess, is that it is a sign of comfort, that your prayer is being heard. Whether the sign comes from the Lord or Saint Nectarios cannot be known.

If I were in your position I would accept it as just that - a confirmation that your prayer is being heard. With hope that the Lord's will be done.

I agree with John.
One thing is for sure, it is a blessing from God.
Wishing you a blessed Lent and recovery for your mother. May God have mercy.
