Carol Vorderman Instagram – @lbc SHOW – TALKING CANCER After the shock announcement by Princess Catherine about her cancer I chatted to oncology expert Professor Gordon Wishart. This govt is failing on all cancer targets, Gordon told me that he was part of a group of oncology experts commissioned by the govt to write a report. They put their report in TWO YEARS AGO and this Tory govt HASN’T EVEN ACKNOWLEDGED ITS RECEIPT let alone actioned any of the recommendations. 1 in 2 of us will suffer from a cancer during our lifetimes. I wanted us to talk about cancer, to learn from each other and to hear the good stories and the bad. Harvey rang in to tell us his story about his beloved wife Brenda and her cancer symptoms and eventual passing. It was an emotional conversation. I’m still affected by listening back to it to be honest 🥲 My mum had 3 different cancers before she eventually passed away. Her life was extended by nearly 20 years because of treatment. Like Harvey, I and all of Mum’s family were at her side when she died (at home). Karen my PA and absolute rock in my life had breast cancer last year and was treated BRILLIANTLY by NHS Southmead Hospital in Bristol. Stories vary but we learn from them. Just like you I’m sure, so many people I’ve loved have been affected and will be affected by cancer.
