My Mother Had An Ascending Aortic Dissection And Now Has

My mother had an ascending aortic dissection and now has severe aortic insufficiency. She cannot survive surgery and is home on medical treatment. She has been stable for 2 weeks without failure. What is her life expectancy if she doesn't rupture or further dissect?
