Your mom might face long-term effects from her brain tumor surgery, including declines in speech and movement as the tumor affects different brain areas. These issues may worsen with age, and seizures are also common. To improve her quality of life, consult a neurologist or brain tumor specialist. They can recommend treatments like seizure medications, physical therapy, and speech therapy. Regular check-ups will help monitor progress and adjust her treatment plan as needed.
