Default Dog chemo

Anyone given their dog chemotherapy? Our old girl has just been diagnosed with Lymhoma. Not sure what stage though. She is 12yrs. old this summer. Currently on Prednisone, which I gather suppresses her immune system somewhat as it was in overdrive.

Seems even with the chemo her longevity outlook is not that great at that age. Our vet said if not chemo, then the steroid, {at a milder level} to help her as long as possible.

Anyways just wondering what others have done in a similar case. I certainly wont let her suffer at all. I owe her that for all her years of friendship.
Thanks
