I cant believe some of the comments on here!!! Put yourself in the position you or one of your family members are told you have cancer you would do all you could to extend your/their life. all the hoo ha a few months back about the hundreds of thousands of pounds it would cost to replace all the implants on the NHS that were faulty..... its drugs like this that money should be spent on. Watching someone die from cancer no matter what type isnt a pleasant experience watching them day in day out suffering when drugs like this can give them a decent quality of life no matter how short.
