Hello Needshope. You didn't mention what type of chemo your mom is on. How often does she take it. I started chemo for breast cancer this past April. Once a week for supposedly 12 weeks. However, it was cut short to 9 weeks because my neuropathy was getting so bad. I was cancer free and got to ring the bell last December, exactly 12 months after diagnosis. However, the neuropathy persists from my knees to my toes and in my fingers. I don't think I have it as bad as your mom if she can't walk. I have turned my ankles a couple of times until I found the right pair of shoes. I do have an appointment with the radiologist coming up so will see if that helps. My oncologist did tell me that with neuropathy each person is different, from it healing to long lasting effects. Wish I could be more helpful.
