The fight is over

sadly my husband past on 20th of February, he fought to the very end but died peacefully at home. He was only 68 and the sense of loss is overwhelming even though I’ve known for months it was coming soon. I have taken a lot of comfort from this group over the past year as we embarked on Pluvicto which unfortunately wasn’t the miracle we thought it may be.

Fiona, I am truly sorry for your loss. Since you joined HU your posts have told your story as the two of sought out advanced treatments and hoped for more time together. While I’m sorry that Pluvitico did not provide more help, I can imagine what a blessing it was to your husband to have you at his side, advocating for him. I wish you the comfort of family and friends during your healing process, and a bright spirit as you move forward in your own journey

FionaElbourne in reply toFormosan

hi he got 9 years since discovery age 59. He was stage 4 with widespread mets on discovery. He had chemo twice docetaxel and cabitaxel, enzalutimide, zytiga, decapeptyl hormone injections. Targeted radiotherapy all worked for a time but eventually he tried Pluvicto which reduced PSA by 70% but the tumours spread rapidly and it was stopped after 3rd treatment that was 6 months ago.
