I can certainly understand how confusing this can be. None of us here are medically trained professionals. We arent qualified to make these types of decisions, only you with your family can decide what is the best option. Selecting a treatment plan is never an easy choice. Im sorry I wasnt able to help sway you on this.
Best wishes.
