Need Urgent help

My mother aged 64 was diagnosed with MDS RAEB-2 and had 4 rounds of Vidaza with no success. Her recent biopsy shows 37% blast turned to AML. Doctors are now suggesting 7+3 days of standard chemo to bring the blast count down and if successful go for transplant with 50% match. I need advise if it is advisable to go for Chemo at this age, will she be able to tolerate it and also is 50% and 100% match has the same success rate. I am really tensed and worried. Please someone help.
