How long

Was it a whole company or department that got made redundant or just him? If it was just him, did you get legal advice about whether he could claim discrimination under the Equality Act?

I think it is right that oncos are clear with patients if they are diagnosed with incurable cancer - better than being given false hope - and it is true that the hormone injections won't last forever. Eventually the cancer learns to live without testosterone at which point the treatment needs to be changed to other newer treatments. Some rare prostate cancers are very aggressive and nothing works for very long while others seem to tick along for years and years. We have had members with diagnoses like your partner's and they have still been here 10, 12, 14 years later. Assuming your partner is responding well at the moment and his PSA has gone down and stayed low, I assume he hasn't been diagnosed with one of the rare types? Do you have the diagnosis letter - does it say 'adenocarcinoma'?
