JenkazMrs Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Hi all, Today we received the news through Jimmy's oncologist that the PCT have agreed to fund Tarceva. It all feels somewhat surreal at the moment. I have campaigned so hard for this and it has caused many sleepless nights and a tremendous strain not just on us bu our family. Night after night writing letters to MP's the PCT, TV, newspaper interviews has finally paid off. While we are delighted by this we are small fish in a big pond as there are so many others out there finding themselves in long drawn out battles. I hope that our news will give others a boost fighting for drugs, I know how much it weighs you down and how frustrating it is. I hope if your reading this post it will give you the strength to continue with your fight. Goodluck to everyone!
