    Just added my signature. As I'm currently undergoing radiotherapy after BC surgery I am grateful that you have brought Lymphoedema to the attention of so many. Prior to my own diagnosis I would not have been aware of it.

    Good luck and all the very Bahons2.

    You've done amazingly well so far, let's hope we can keep this at the top for a day or so to see if we can still do more here for such a great cause.

    The very best of wishes with the petition and the cause!

    Thank you everyone, especially deb68, Sue-UU and silvasava for posting and in doing so keeping this thread at or near the top.

    I'm just giving the petition a little bump myself now as it has less than 10 days to run before it closes.

    The number of signatures is currently 926 - would love to break the 1,000 barrier!

    Anyone reading this, PLEASE go to post number 33 and sign the petition which needs your backing so desperately. Before you do, look at the first post which explains all about it.

    Thanks you all so much.

    I signed the petition, I think mine took it to 974, do you mind if I post the link on a weight loss site I'm on? I figured with only a few days left if it could get any more signatures then that would be worth it?
