Cancer Voices are people from across the UK who share their experiences to help shape cancer services and improve cancer care.

But just what is Pseudomyxoma Survivor and who are the faces behind the name?
After my diagnosis with metastatic, well-differentiated mucinous adenocarcinoma of the appendix, my doctor said I have a 72% chance of being alive in 10 years; those are great odds for a cancer patient.
