@emerald88604982 @marypgkeating @hutchi56641 @chrisshipitv @royalmarsdenNHS I had chemotherapy this morning. All staff were masked up and patients were asked to mask if their cancer allowed it.

@Jeffrey62093861 @Joe___Allen @ceritheviking @catherine628851 @WillHayCardiff I’m 42 and have stage 4 cancer. The problem with long wait lists, is that treatable conditions become terminal. More people need to pay attention.

Gynaecological cancer wait times got worse; despite being a government priority.

Yesterday welsh waiting lists hit 802k. I posted about it. @WillHayCardiff did. And @closhea from my timeline did. Lots going on I know but my timeline on welsh issues still has a focus on constituency names!! Makes you wonder. No criticism. But bad news just accepted now ?

@pontymike @ceritheviking @WillHayCardiff In the case of the cancer treatment, it’s generally waiting for first medical intervention to cure/control cancer.

@AnnaMcMorrin Thank you Anna. Although not your constituent I know you’ve been informed by experiences like my stage 4 cancer diagnosis. There are lots of women in the same position as me who are sad they need to consider this option, but are relived to potentially have it in the future.

Really glad to see my MP voting in favour of this tomorrow. It’s a difficult subject, but we need to be brave to improve the way people with terminal illnesses can approach their own deaths.

So for those of us, who will face this reality sooner rather than later, this bill offers something really important. I have excellent palliative care; but it doesn’t address all of my needs and how I imagine a good death. It’s not just about pain management.
