Chemo and Prostrate Cancer ? Will it help?

My Granddaddy was treated for prostrate cancer with radiation beads about 2 years ago. We found out yesterday that his cancer is back with PSI level at 36. The doctor said he has to have chemo this time. He is 82. Will this chemo help? How will it effect my Granddaddy? What can I do?

    I wouldn’t do it. 82? I would want to enjoy what time I have left without being horribly sick from the chemo that MIGHT only give me an extra month.

    No way.
