I am sorry you have been given such distressing news. One possibility you could investigate is clinical trials. Is it possible for you to call the Cancer Nurse Specialist at the Christ Church hospital and let them know that you are interested in clinical trials? These trials are free and your partner will continue to receive medical attention.
Keeping you both in my thoughts.
