She has been treated quickly and kindly and found her oncologist marvellous.

 



And what's your general view of the National Health Service after all this?

After all this, I wouldn't have a bad word to say about them. I've been treated so quickly, so kindly, I would not have them criticised at all in front of me. They've been absolutely marvellous, absolutely marvellous. With the resources that they've got they're wonderful, absolutely wonderful.

And communication between doctors and patients; has that been good?

It has been so far, so far yes it has, yeah. Dr, my oncologist he is, he's absolutely fantastic, I've never known a doctor like him. He, he does have a clinic but he would rather come and see you whilst you're having your treatment than to drag you back to the hospital, for an appointment. He is, he's marvellous, he is absolutely marvellous.
