Can you explain if it's possible to lose use of legs from ewing sarcoma?

Hopefully: Not enough info given to answer. If ewings was in the spine and pinching the spinal cord causing paralysis prompt treatment can relieve the pressure on the cord and restore function. If ewings is in the bones of the limb sparing treatment after chemo using surgery that protects leg function and allows the leg to lengthen with growth, or possibly radiation instead can keep the leg working.
