am waiting with bated breath!!! even if it is only on the pbs for first line treatment, then its a start and just maybe in time to come will be available to all, the letter I received from my MP was very disappointing it was put up online for me by rosie in case any one wants to read it, the gist of it was that the government does not interfere with any decisions by the pbs, so as you can imagine did nothing for my confidence in what may happen, still I can hope, roll on the 20th of april, then the government has to agree to subsidise it I believe!
