Hello Dora, and thank you for posting.
I am afraid I do not know the life expectancy for the gentleman you have described, as we are not part of his care.
If this is a good friend or relative do encourage them to ask their doctor who may be able to give an idea of prognosis (life expectancy), but of course, many factors can affect this.
Take care Dora and if you want to chat with one of the nurses on our helpline the number is Freephone 0808 800 4040. The lines are open from 9 am till 5 pm, Monday to Friday.
Sarah.
