Hi Tom,
Thanks for your message. I'm sorry to hear the news about your Brother. In this job I hear all too many similar stories but the progress we are making is very real. More and more people are being successfully treated but unfortunately there is still a way to go before we beat it. It's 20 years since I lost my own Mother to cancer and that's a large part of why I do what I do.
I saw this at the weekend:

Thanks again to everyone - I look forward to hearing how it all goes.
Best wishes,
Jack.
