NHS must learn one thing about cancer patients - how Big Ben helped me reach clarity - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As the hammer struck Big Ben at 9am I was mesmerised. It was a sound I'd heard from the ground thousands of times over the years, but to be there right in front of it was something else. Holding on to a metal girder, as well as hearing the sound, I felt the vibrations through my body and it made me feel an incredible connection to the past. In a world that is becoming increasingly taken over by technology and AI, it was amazing to know that the Victorian workmanship and engineering was still bei
NHS chiefs need to wake up and realise 1 thing I've learned battling incurable cancer - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Having a heart attack wasn't in my plan for my mid-40s, but it almost happened when I called my hospital. It's something I've done countless times over the three years I've been fighting incurable bowel cancer. But this call was very different. The usual situation is that the phone rings and rings and no one picks up, so you try again later. Then it rings and rings, and no one picks up again. Then it rings and rings, and then you give up on getting through. An alternative situation is that the n
NHS leaving cancer patients to 'do whatever' with potentially lethal medication - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Naively, I used to think that treating illnesses was a bit like an episode of Great British Bake Off. I thought it was a world where you had to follow the prescription details as closely as you would follow a Nigella Lawson recipe for a choux bun, or you'd risk the chastisement of Paul Hollywood. This was certainly the case when I was a child. Back then, if I had tonsillitis, my parents would follow the prescribed dosage of antibiotics given to me by a GP, because they'd trained for years and kn
'Horrific' holiday costs for cancer patients leads to calls for change - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Pressure is growing on travel insurance companies to make prices fairer for cancer patients, who can face costs of several thousand pounds to be insured for a holiday. Cancer support charity Maggie's says that people battling the devastating disease are continuing to be refused or overcharged by providers, with regulators and the Government "shirking responsibility". And the Labour MP Richard Burgon tabled an early day motion in Parliament before recess and has vowed to continue pressing the iss
I met Yvette Cooper when I was drunk - there's 1 chat I hope I never have with her - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I was drunk the last time I met Yvette Cooper. Not overly majorly drunk, just "a few pints after work drunk". It was at Victoria Station in London, and it must have been at least five years ago. The encounter started with me spotting Stella Creasy and telling her she's an amazing MP, mostly because of her refusal to take requests when she DJs and for how she sorted out an issue with her mum's oven. After being reassured that I didn't live in her Walthamstow constituency and wouldn't be sitting o
