AnswerUnfortunately in this situation her cancer can not at present be cured and her prognosis is bad though her cancer may be possible to control for at least some time. For how long is impossible to tell, especially as oncology is making progress all the time. No there are no real diet restrictions and those myths about pure raw fruits and vegetables are unfortunately just myths without foundation in reality!
