Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. She has glioblastoma multiforme. It is stage 4 cancer according to who staging system. It is very difficult to treat. She have gone through surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. However chances of recurrence are there. Moreover during surgery there may be some damage to her brain and it affect her memory and speech. So chance of getting normal speech are less. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
