Question
my uncle was told 3months ago that he has 7tumors on the brain that were inoperable. he has had radiation, but he now has no feeling, use in the right arm,leg. he is also losing his memory now and has discolouration on his toes nails. is this nearing the end, or is their worse to come?????
Probably he has a cancer somewhere else that has spread to his brain. Based on your description he is getting near his end but he is obviously not there yet so more things may happen. When he sleeps all the time he will be VERY close to his end. He will then drift into a coma and then pass away. However more stroke like symptoms - like the ones he already has - may appear as may more confusion and even epileptic fits. I'm sorry I have nothing better to tell you!
