Please tell me the life expectancy for someone with neurofibromatosis type 2?

Much better: In past the past the average life span of individuals with NF2 was shortened compared to people without NF2. Improvements in diagnosis and management have changed this statistic.I would discuss it with your neurologist since she/he knows the specifics of your condition
