Waving the banner.....

Im back after a fabulous week sailing round Turkey....but more of that another time.

There are more pressing and important issues right now.  Tomorrow Catherine and I are taking part in a demonstration outside NICE's headquarters in London.  There will, hopefully, be many of us there, patients and relatives and supporters.

There has been so much in the media of late about NICE's preliminary report including a letter signed by 25 of the UKs top oncologists - surely this will be enough to make them think again?

I shall report back on how it goes - providing ofcourse Catherine and I arnt dragged away in handcuffs for being a little too 'demonstrative' !

Hi Jane..... 'Go Girl', you and Catherine show em up, make them feel ashamed of the decisions they are taking - would they be making these decisions if it was their wife, daughter, son, mother or father - you bet they would think again.
Power to you all, my support and strength goes with you.
Big Luv, Jaynee X

Perhaps you should get dragged away....will watch the TV to see you being carted off !!!!  what fun that would be....promise we will pay your fine.....Really though every blessing for tomorrow.  I do pray that all the publicity will bring about a turn around.  looking forward very much to hearing all about Turkey when you feel like sharing.  TAke care.  much love Sybil xx

Don't hold back, Jane, it's an appalling decision they took. I'm 500 miles from London, but will be there in spirit :-)
