Hello, I am just trying to find some information on how long a person can live with last stages of liver failure,my brother who is only 41 years old had to be put into a nursing home due to liver failure,some days he seems to being doing better and other days he just wants to sleep,he has been in nursing home for 3 weeks now and I just would like a little information from someone that has been through this before,is there any chance that he can live for a year or so without a transplant? Or are just talking about a few months? Any insight would really help me out...thanks for your time! Sandy
