From the Author
A message to be told? A story of passion? A campaign against the establishment? Surely not a 'journey through cancer'? 'Who's Been Peeping In My Bed?' is my story about my fight against cancer and living with the disease; a disease that was looked upon like leprosy in the early days. Now people are lving with cancer and opening a new window in their world. I have tried to express how cancer opened my eyes to things that matter; hence my campaign for the accessibility of new cancer drugs for everyone, which forms a substantial part of my story. It deals with the diffiulties faced in obtaining the drugs that have helped me, but are not freely available on the NHS. This does not take away from the reality that must be faced; instead it simply tries to make it part of a new way of life.

I have just had the privelege to have read this absolutely enthraling , factualy accurate account of someones most intermate memoires journey through cancer. I find it so very heart warming that a human being can endure such a monumental challenge to survive physicaly all that cancer has to throw at you and grow mentaly stronger in spite of this.What i find so inspireing is the journey that mark ( Barbara's ) husband has shown how to cope with quiet dignity and respect, this book shows what the human spirit is truly capeable of achieving when you dont accept what all the experts say. Truly inspiring read that answers all the questions that you may have if ever you are in the unfortunate position that thesed two beautiful people found themselves in. I would certainly reccomend this book to sufferers,carers and friends, this book is a first hand account of a seemingly hopeless situation to a happy conclusion.
I had the privilege of meeting Barbara and Mark at a conference recently. You couldn't hope to meet two nicer people. I then learnt of the immense challenges they have both been through and was amazed at their calm acceptance, but determination to push on and succeed.
Barbara's book, unlike more high profile 'super people', provides an inspiring account of these every day, but undoubted super people in their own right, who have and continue to overcome the most challenging odds.
This is a gripping read (I read it in one plane and train journey) and totally inspiring, particularly if you are facing similar health and life challenges.
A must read!
