NICE approval doesn't mean it will necessarily be available though. Different areas (used to be PCTs, now CCGs - Clinical Commissioning Groups) make their own decisions about which drugs to add to formulary. Having NICE approval means it's easier to get a drug onto formulary but it wouldn't be autom...

Marie thank you so much for your message on the tribute wall <3 I can't imagine losing both parents, it's hard enough losing one I am really struggling at the moment and not having a good time of it. I've distracted myself for the last 6 weeks doing fun stuff, going out etc. but I came down to earth...

And where the hell was the HPB Specialist Nurse mum? We found out her name by ringing Macmillan who chased it up for us. However we NEVER saw her and hardly heard from her. What a total waste of space she was! Thank the sweet Lord for Macmillian, District Nurses and Jeni (for my part). Could not hav...

Oh Julie I am so sorry :-( Having lost my dad only 3 weeks ago I know how hard it is. I still have not really got my head around it or processed all that has happened. I think it will be a long road but we are all here for you and each other so please keep posting. Thinking of you and sending love K...

Oh Helen I am so very sorry to hear this. I lost my own dad on the 12th so I know the pain you are in. I think you are right about people not wanting everyone to be there at the very end. I was with my dad for the whole of the week before he died but he actually passed away when my brothers and I we...

Thank you all you lovely ladies for your messages. Just doing some last minute packing then we are off. Jools is already there with my brother and apparently it's scorchio - hurrah!
