Cancer patient tells Australian government about expensive drug to keep him alive

The 'My Name is Chris' campiagn has been rolling along for a few months now, all with the aim of helping husband and father Chris buy the drugs he needs to stay alive.

They're expensive though, and this is a problem being felt Australia wide. In April Chris and his wife were called to give evidence at a Senate Inquiry into the cost of these cancer drugs.

An amazing bit of recognition for the advocacy Chris' plight has generated!
