This petition has gained nearly 3,500 signatures since my last update. If you recently signed, prompted by articles in the local and national press, thank you so much for your support.
Recent progress has felt slow but my heartfelt thanks to those of you who continue to share and raise awareness. I still hold on to the hope that if every one of us manages to encourage just one other person to sign we will reach our 100,000 target. If your brother, sister, mother, father, husband, daughter, son, or anyone, has expressed their support but has not yet managed to add their name please gently remind them about Jess. Lovely Jess should have had a proper chance to fight cancer. I desperately hope, that together, we can provide others with that chance in the future.
Please continue to share. Thank you so much.
