Cancer Services "need shake up"

This is what the All Party Parliamentary Group are saying this morning. There's a bit of a lottery in terms of where one lives. GPs are also failing for not referring quickly enough etc. I also feel they need a shake up. One particular ENT consultant at Addenbrookes hospital needs a bloody spin in a centrifuge in my opinion. As some of you know, he failed to do three tests on me and then one of his junior surgeons managed to turn up at my second operation without any notes. That resulted in another delay....but in my case it has to be said additional delays were caused not by medical consultants and doctors but by the secretaries who type and send the referral letters. They do this pretty much as and when they feel like typing them out and sending them.

In bonnie Scotland today. Flight wasn't too bad. And Pavel kept us amused as usual. And the hair's looking cool. Yeah.
