If what you say is accurate, you should report it. I would suggest making a list of all the things you have observed along with times and dates. Leave personal issues such as the daughter's personality, etc. out of it. Just be very factual.
It is especially scary that she is not getting enough to eat and is not taking her meds.
In your town there should be an office of adult protective services. Call them immediately.
She is lucky to have you in her corner.
