Thanks for the get well messages. I just had a cold and sore throat but it was enough to stop me feeling well enough to travel 200 miles to Manchester. However, I did send the petition to the contact at NICE and asked them to make sure the appraisal committee were aware that 1200 people had signed in protest. I have heard nothing back which at least might mean that they did forward the PDF with the names and comments to the committee and Chair. ...
I will leave the petition up until next week as it seems that people are still signing. I will then print it off and send it with a letter to the Health Ministers and again to NICE and hope they take note of the strength of feeling so evident in the many comments.
Best wishes
Sandy
