MDS to AML

It looks as though my mothers MDS has progressed to AML. She is going in to the doctor tomorrow for another bone marrow biopsy, but her WBC count is at 15.7 and her peripheral blasts are at 19%.

Is there any hope at all once it progresses to AML or is this it? I am sick to death over this. What a Christmas present.
