Dad's prostate cancer

Hi my dad got diagnosed with prostate cancer just over a year and a half ago. It had already spread to his hip. His psa has started to rise and got told today his hormone therapy is no longer working. We will be getting referred to oncology within a few weeks. So scared for him. Been reading about radium 233. Anybody had it before chemo ? He does have bone pain. Thanks xx
