Hi, I had gone through your query and understood your concerns.
I am sorry for the situation you are in.
this is a very difficult question to answer because the prognosis of patients depends on many factors like metabolic profile and comorbidities.
doctors can tell about the case as poor prognosis but its very very difficult to tell about the life span.
in many situation when doctors thing that this patient will not survive,like a miracle patients will recover from the condition.
hope you understand my intention.
