My Daughter Was A Heroin Addict For Many Years And

My daughter was a heroin addict for many years and her right hand is drooping and has been paralyzed for many years. She has an opened wound on her hand, she has had and still has cancer and an infection in her hand which is in the bone. Right now , as a last resort , she is doing hyperbaric treatment which is not working. She has had two rounds of radiation which did not work. She wants to have her distal right arm amputated, but her doctors in Morehead City think that is rushing things. This has been going on for 4 years.There are no good hospitals in Morehead City and the doctors there are reluctant to take her on. Now they are suggesting debridement which she has had several time with no good results. What do you think. She is 45 today and has been clean for 5 years.
