My husband died three weeks ago from the effects of metastatic prostate cancer. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer at the end of 2018 and underwent radiotherapy in 2019. His psa level was fine until June 2023 when the psa level went up. He started on Apalutamide and then went onto Abiraterone. He was then offered a trial through Addenbrookes. We waited and he went for tests but we were told he wasn't eligible because he'd been on two types of medication. He was then offered chemotherapy which he began in June 2024. After eight sessions, his body had had enough. He had no appetite, lost so much weight and used a walking stick. He went into hospital at the beginning of this year and died at the end of the month. I feel bereft, lonely and questioning life.
