Default Desperately need help for my mother... delayed radiation brain damage.

My mother is 53, 5' 5", 175 pounds, and Caucasian. She had brain surgery/chemo/radiation a few decades ago to treat stage IV glioblastoma multiforme cancer. About five years ago, we noticed her walking started getting worse. Fast forward to today - she is completely bedridden, almost no memory, needs help doing everything, etc. A few neuro docs know about it, and they say this is ALL due to delayed radiation damage. They say nothing can be done... But my mom is getting worse and worse so quickly... What is her future going to be like? We need help badly... Degeneration is happening rapidly! What else can we do? I keep thinking some "better" doctor might know more about treating delayed radiation damage. Something experimental? Honestly, I can't find jack about it online. I can't research this diagnosis on my own because the information just isn't here... Give us some guidance please!
