Plus all those work shy terminal cancer patients like, say, me! I’m on sick leave now and can assure everyone that I’d absolutely love to be fit for work. Let’s crush this dangerous narrative!

2.7m adults unable to work are just “lazy”, the children are “pulling sickies”, and the parents are “hypochondriacs”. In a pandemic. I had hoped we were smarter than this.

@TheCancerSutra No one can stop you hoping - I guess it’s the one thing we’ve got left, whatever the survival stats or recurrence rate!

It’s really annoying me to hear people bemoaning that there are so many people ‘on the sick’ when they could be working. Like I chose to have a nice cushy little excuse for a sick note like, say, terminal cancer.

@Philcastang It’s amazing to read this. Only 2/3rds of screening tests are returned. The stage 1 five year survival rate is 90%, which is about the same as the stage 4 DEATH rate. If this is caught up late, you end up like me!

@TheCancerSutra Absolutely! But weirdly, I find it just as hard to process when things are going better than expected - recalibrating how much to hope for and for how long.

It’s evidently not good enough Cancer patients deserve better They require an NHS that is sufficiently staffed to meet demand for cancer diagnosis, treatment & care This requires political will & a long term fully funded cancer plan A #CancerManifesto

@Aiannucci How about anyone who wants to claim Rwanda is a safe country agrees to live there for a year?

Not quite the same for me, but having lost my first love and fiancé to cancer, and now I’m dying of it myself, I am effectively unable to have any kind of relations(hip) because I can’t bare the thought of someone going through the agony of losing me.

Proud of Ellie for speaking out. Cancer can change so much about a person and if we can’t talk about it we’ll never be able to change it. All the story tellers in this campaign are unflinching, facing into taboos and prejudice to make it better for others. 💚

How dare Jeremy *unt make a virtue of being a runner by fat shame his opponents! Just another classic example of a Tory party in the gutter with constant personal attacks. Politicians can and should be better than this. Some are. They are NOT all the same. Some are decent.

Wonder if I’ve helped inspired @paulwaugh to stand for Labour?! I don’t consider myself particularly inspirational but I’d take this.
