Letter: Shropshire Star (CEP Shropshire)

Treatment has to be made fair

Shropshire girl Katie Morgan's mother has breast cancer and might benefit from Herceptin.

Unfortunately, Shropshire NHS Trust cannot afford to allow her to have it.
If she lived two miles further west, in Wales, she could get it.

But then every taxpayer in England is providing Wales with a subsidy.

Mrs Morgan's hopes lie with her MP, Owen Pater-son, who has taken up her coee.
Good man that he is, he will need help.

So can I suggest you write to your MP and/or the Secretary of State and demand fair and equitable treatment for all the United Kingdom's citizens.
