Hi and welcome to Healthcare magic.Thank you for the query.
If this tumor is inoperabile and there is no indication for chemo or radiotherapy then the treatment is only paliative,but it doesnt meand that you cant help her. You need to prevent pain,infections and further complication and allow urine flow by medical th or by catheterisation. I am sire yur doctors will know how to do this.
Wish you good health. Regards
