My mother is in a hospice home with a stage IV inoperable brain tumor. Her symptoms are becoming more pronounced with a distended abdomen, inability to converse, jaundice. She is still eating good and not sleeping excessively. In general - and realizing you don t have a crystal ball - approximately how long does she have left?
If it is a Nuroblastoma - grade 4, I would say 6 months. I'm sorry for your situation. Even in the initial stages, and if it is well operable and removed, patients don't have a big difference in years of survival.
