THIS is a heartbreaking letter from a 10-year-old begging health chiefs to give his mother a vital cancer drug.
Aiden Glasswell?s mum Janice, 44, has been turned down for Cetuximab because it?s ?not cost-effective? to prescribe it on the NHS.
But medical experts have told her it would ease her suffering and extend her life.
Upset at seeing his mum in pain, Aiden wrote to Health Secretary Alex Neil. He has bravely come forward as Janice speaks about her fight.
The letter reads: ?Give her the drug before it?s too late. Please give it to her.
