[QUOTE="cugila, post: 137432, member: 15325"] This isn't NICE we are talking about this is the Government who decided that was all the money they were going to put into the Cancer Fund........it is just a drop in the ocean. They can and should do more. The Health Minister dictates what NICE and the PCT's do, it is not their decision. They are told what to do. It is that sort of attitude that is too prevelant today....."oh well, we haven't got the money so they will have to die." Is that what you agree with ? I certainly dont. I value my fellow human beings. I would give all I had to save a life. This government doesn't have to do that it just needs to fund the care for Cancer Patients properly and fairly. They find money for all sorts of 'far out' causes. I am not interested in the actual pricing that NICE uses to evaluate cost effectiveness. I have read most of the NICE guidelines over the last 12 months, I can quote some verbatim. I am not interested in the cost to Network Rail. I am just interested in getting better funding for people who as Silver Fox says, do not have a choice ! I'm not interested in somebody telling me WHY they won't do it......I want to hear how they CAN do it, add extra funding. I don't need to hear from accountant's, I need to hear from positive thinkers ! Like myself. [/QUOTE]
