natural remedies for lung cancer?

My grandma was just diagnosed with lung cancer and was given 3 to 9 months to live. She has chosen to not undergo any radiation/chemo therapy treatment, and just wants to remain comfortable. I was wondering what type of herbal and natural remedies there are that could help her feel comfortable, and also may help fight the cancer to prolong her life. The only thing that is bothering her is a deep chest cough, because the tumor has caused part of her lung to collapse, otherwise she is in no pain. Thank you.
