Pancreatic cancer drugs allowed Mark Davies to eat without pain

Mark Davies was just 40 when he was diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer.

He was prescribed life-changing drugs that meant he was able to eat without pain.

But two-fifths of patients are not offered these drugs despite them being the recommended treatment.

Mark’s widow, Hannah, said: “We had family meals together which were really precious.

“And we wouldn’t have had them with the way eating had an effect on him.”
