Good Day
My sister was diagnosed with brain cancer.She has had radium treatment(14 sessions).The dr's has no further treatment to give.She has now developed shingles on her abdomen.She lost her speech when they did a biopsy to see how old the tumour is.According to the dr it is 2 and a half yrs old very aggressive and 6cm deep.It is located between the right and left hemisphere of the brain and between the vains.They say it is too far to operate.They dont have any hope.She still walks,talks a few words if not mono-syllables.She is very forgetfull but aware.Do you think there is hope?She lives in South Africa.She is 43 yrs old.Thank you for your information.
