I actually snagged the link and emailed it to the patient relations manager at my ccc - asked her to pass it on to those who might think its relevant.

As a person who just completed treatment and is waiting the 3 months for a PET/CT scan the hitchhiking video put the hebejebes into me. Another topic I am going to add to my list to discuss with my ENT and RO.
