Well done, Cyfr. Your posts always reflect an inquiring and thoughtful mind. Ten years ago I met with Peter Pike, then Labour MP for the Burnley area, regarding the horrendous treatment my father received whilst dying of cancer at Burnley Gen. The details are too ghastly and upsetting to repeat here. At that time Mr. Pike told me that it did not matter which party was in office because there would never be enough money to give patients everything they might need. Unfortunately, this is the nature of a system with no consumer participation. I truly hope that things will improve.

Hope you gave "Two Jags" a wave as you went by.
