Hello, and thank you for taking my query. Currently, my boyfriend's mother is at the end stage of uterine cancer. She has much edema and is in a nursing home. She had refused treatment and we are currently being supportive of her. My question is how long does the end stage last?
Thanks for your question on HCM. I can understand your problem and situation. But we can not do anything except to decrease her suffering. Since edema feet are starting the prognosis seems worsening only. Usual life expectancy in end stage uterine cancer is less than 6 months but in your case I think it is less than 3-4 months. Try to discuss end of life issues with her.
