Petition

Sandy, I am posting on behalf of Alan Quarterman.
Alan received a letter from Leukaemia Care re the NICE ACD which directed him to this website for a petition.
The only petition is the one on the home page entitled 'Be NICE to Cancer Patients' so he has emailed the link to all of his contacts.
Over 50 people have signed since yesterday.
I've just looked at it and it looks like the petition from last year..... so have their efforts been wasted?
Thanks for your fast response to the ACD and extremely well written press release. All the best with the campaign.
Shelley

Hi Shelley... no you have not wasted your signatures.. the older petition is still live (we delivered 1200 signatures to the NICE appraisal committee last year on behalf of intolerant patients) but wanted to keep that going because NICE will present the FAD on the imatinib intolerant at the same time as imatinib 'resistant' CML FAD. So... we have 

Be NICE to Cancer patients

and the new petition

NICE? I don't think so!

I hope you can sign both because they should not be separated as groups- both imatinib intolerant AND imatinib resistant need access to all these drugs... NICE separated the groups to make things less straight forward.;o)

You can access the new petition link on the home page- and the old one on the right menu- I am waiting for my tech guy to help with formatting the new one onto the menu page.

Thanks again -and please thank Alan too. 

Best wishes,

Sandy

Thanks for the explanation Sandy, and for setting up the new petition. You're doing a great job.

Very best wishes

Shelley and Alan
