Shropshire Star
Shropshire girl Katie Morgan made the national newspapers on Thursday 9th March.
Her mother has tragically had breast cancer and might benefit from being treated with Herceptin (the so-called wonder drug). Unfortunately, Shropshire NHS Trust cannot afford to allow her to have it. It is not their fault for they just do not get enough funding. Ironically, if she lived two miles further west, in Wales, they can afford to supply it. But then of course every taxpayer in England is providing Wales with a hefty additional subsidy.
Mrs Morgan’s hopes lie with her M.P., Owen Paterson, who has taken up her case. Good man that he is, he will need all the help he can get. So can I suggest you write to your M.P. and/or the Secretary of State and demand fair and equitable treatment for all the United Kingdom’s citizens.
