Hi Deanne

Hope things go well today for Jimmy.



I have been contacted by a journalist for the Sunday Times who is thinking of doing an article on an English lung cancer patient who is moving to Scotland to access Tarceva or other lc treatment.



I am not aware of any specific examples who would be happy to publicise their story and wondered if you were aware of anyone through your forum who may want to be involved in this.



Kind regards, Susan

Maybe they should do a wider article about the reasons behind why many patients are moving, travelling, fighting just to have access to drugs which are available in some places but not others!!
