Patients Voices Grow Louder in Great Britain
This is the second in a two-part series.
The British Association of Cancer United Patients (BACUP) will celebrate its 15th anniversary in October with a tribute to its founder. Vicky Clement Jones, M.D., who died from cancer in 1987, is said to have done more than any other single individual in Britain to promote patient empowerment. She vowed to "kick cancer out of the closet" and to end "the conspiracy of silence" affecting cancer patients and their families and friends.
