I received an e-mail today,part of which i have pasted below,inviting me to join a research team formed to improve the support and care of cancer patients and their carers.This has really lifted my heart as it seems such a positive way to honour robs memory and help all you guys battling on


[quote] ] I am delighted to confirm that we would very much like you to join the COMPASS Consumer Research Panel and hope that you are still keen to come on board. If so, please reply to this email confirming your acceptance of this invitation.

This panel is being formed at an interesting time for the COMPASS Collaborative. There is a focus on Supportive and Palliative Care research and on new initiatives covering Survivorship and End of Life Care. We believe that a high level of patient and carer involvement over the next two years will be important to help COMPASS achieve research that will eventually make a real difference to patients and carers.

COMPASS researchers are dispersed throughout the UK academic community and the panel may be asked to contribute to a wide range of interesting research ideas and projects, all of which will have the objective of improving the experience of cancer patients and their families.

I will do my best on everyones behalf
