LM, overall assessment is just impossible from this Forum, even for someone who spent a lifetime as a nurse. You should talk with your hospice personnel. They may be hesitant to guess. Often the best assessments, the best "guesses" are wrong. Each human body is as unique as a thumbprint.
I hope you are drawing comfort from Hospice, and that your Mom is comfortable? Our thoughts go out to you. So glad you are there with your Mom. I hope you will keep us updated.

Stiffness alone is very common with Parkinson's. I don't know about swelling of limbs.

Probably time to consult the Dr. Hopefully you can do a virtual visit.

Mom is on hospice? Then you can ask the hospice care team. At some point, hospice does help facilitate a painless (we hope) passing. What happens before that is as unique as the person themselves.

Take Care.
