Any Hope for my Mom?

Hello Dr.!

My mom and I just recently discovered she has cirrhosis of the liver and is at the decompenstated state. Last year she had minimal scaring and did not show any signs of fibrosis. Why has this come on so fast? Is their a chance of being miss diagnosed for decompensated cirrohsis of the liver? My mom is terrified of the transplant idea. Is their any hope that she will live a long life to see her kids get married and see grandchildren? She is 55yrs old.

Thank you for your time!
