A YEAR ago, I was diagnosed with mesothelioma, an asbestos-related disease for which currently there is no cure.
Someone I know who also suffers with the same disease has been partaking in an alternative form of treatment using mistletoe and, over a period of time, her tumour has reduced by over 50 per cent.
This treatment is not available on the NHS, and a petition has been started for this treatment to be made available to other cancer sufferers in the UK.
Could I please appeal to all readers of The Hunts Post to sign this petition, in the hope that it may be received favourably by those in power at Westminster.
