life expectingce for brain cancer?!


Question: Life expectingce for brain cancer?
62 year old woman with brain and lung cancer she was told 3 months ago how long has she to live

Answers:

You are asking about a primary lung cancer which has metastasized to the brain.
What type ? Small cell or non-small cell lung cancer ?
Has she had cranial radiation ?
How has the primary cancer mass in the lung been treated ?
How is she doing clinically ? We cannot see her.
Far too many unknowns here for a professional answer.
If you want a good answer we must have the details of the case.
And "Dory" is correct, we never know the future for certain in any case
