Cancerous Tumour in the spinal cord??

Has anyone had any experience of a tumour in the spinal cord??
We took my beloved Piper to a Neuro Specialist yesterday where she had an MRI and CT scan which diagnosed an inoperable tumour in her spine. We are all in shock because my vet had some ideas but never did any of us consider this.
I would be interested to know if anyone has had such a diagnosis, what your experiences have been and any alternative remedies used?? I have been to collect steroids etc from the vet today to try to stop the tumour growing. I so hate steroids but feel I have no choice.
Unless of course anyone out there knows differently
Thanking you in anticipation
