Extensive Small Cell Lung Cancer in Grandma

My 83 year old grandma just got diagnosed a week ago with extensive small cell lung cancer with Mets to the liver, lymph nodes, adrenal gland, and brain. She was a 66 year smoker so this is the inevitable but still so hard nonetheless. She started her first round of carboplatin and etoposide. She felt better then today (2 days after the last dose) she seems to be miserable. I’m just wondering how much time I realistically have left with her? The chemo seems to be more palliative. I just don’t want to lose her and this all happened so fast
