Hi all. We need some advise re NHS and cancer treatment. Mum was diagnosed with cancer of bladder and spine on June 10th. Since then mum has had several PET scans, MRI’s etc. no one can give us a prognosis for her, we keep being told we are waiting on MDT every week but no further information. Mum has drastically deteriorated and is now bed bound yet we still have no information. We received another appointment for an MRI in Stanmore next week and MHS ambulance can’t take her as it’s “too early” so Dad in his desperation for answers has paid £700 for private ambulance. As a family we are struggling and mum just don’t know what she is facing. Is this normal from NHS? any guidance or words of wisdom appreciated.
