Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. She has nuroblastoma multiform. It is stage 4 cancer according to who staging system.  It is very difficult to treat.  She has 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 affects 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 Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
