To make routine blood checks a priority

The Issue

I have recentley been diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia at 10 weeks pregnant, without having my regular pregnancy blood tests I would not of found any problems or clues that I had something so wrong with me. This caused me to have to terminate my pregnancy to prevent mine and the baby's health worsening and I could only ask that routine blood tests become a thing of priority as without being pregnant I would not of had any idea I was suffering from this and lived with it for god knows how long. I would hate someone else to miss out on finding it early and want to do this petition to prevent it.
