H thanks for asking question.
Support her for not discontinuing treatment.
If she will not utilise antidiabetic drug gradually kidney will be affected more with advancing glomerulopathy.
So advise her to take low sugar with antidiabetic drug.
Here are few suggestion to her for cirrhosis.
If possible advise her for doing 30 minute regular aerobic exercise.
Avoid refined food and sugar.
Green leafy veg helpful.
Avoid non veg diet like chicken.
In cooking use omega 3 fatty acid contain oil like sunflower or olive oil.
Crushed papaiya seed with lemon juice is beneficial.
Cumin seed in butter milk also taken daily.
I hope my suggestion will help her to live long.
