Private Vs NHS treatment

Hello everyone,   

My lovely mum was diagnosed with lung cancer last year and had surgery earlier this year, which was initially successful.  Unfortunately, she has been feeling unwell and is currently awaiting a biopsy on thickened tissue in her lung.  Surgery won't be an option this time and her health has declined over the last month or so.  I am wondering whether there will be additional options for suitable treatment privately.  She doesn't have health cover but we would pay.  I am conflicted because I always understood cancer treatment to be better overall on the NHS.  Does anyone have any experience or advice? Thank you.
