Macmillan Cancer Support

In this Podcast, Martin and Patrick are delighted to talk with John-Paul Holt (JP) who is a Macmillan Cancer Care Navigator.

Paul is based at the Macmillan Centre at the West Suffolk Hospital in Bury St Edmunds located in Suffolk UK.

We are so lucky to have JP on our Podcast today given his heavy and important workload, but JP has found some time to tell us about the history of Macmillan Cancer Care, his role, and what Macmillan Cancer Care provides.

In 1911, a young man named Douglas Macmillan watched his father die of cancer. His father's pain and suffering moved Douglas so much, that he founded the Society for the Prevention and Relief of Cancer.

Macmillan is one of the UK's largest Cancer Charities which provides a range of services and support not only to the Cancer patients themselves but also to their families and friends too.

Listen to JP explain the range of support and services available from simple things like a chat to helping with the Cance, finances, and a whole range of things that come into play following a Cancer Diagnosis.

This is an extended Podcast as we cannot echo enough how important Macmillian Cancer Support is to the patients, family, and friends of this terrible illness and how they are with you every step of the way.

Macmillan Cancer Support relies on public support too, from fundraising, and special events to Voluntary workers including their Free Macmillan Buddies.

Prince and the Pauper, The by Mark Twain (1835 - 1910) LibriVox The Prince and the Pauper (1882) represents Mark Twain's first attempt at historical fiction. The book, set in 1547, tells the story of two young boys who are identical in appearance: Tom Canty, a pauper who lives with his abusive father in Offal Court, London, and Prince Edward son of Henry VIII of England. Due to a series of circumstances, the boys accidentally replace each other, and much of the humor in the book originates in the two boys' inability to function in the world that is so familiar to the other (although Tom soon displays considerable wisdom in his decisions). In many ways, the book is a social satire, particularly compelling in its condemnation of the inequality that existed between the classes in Tudor England. In that sense, Twain abandoned the wry Midwestern style for which he was best known and adopts a style reminiscent of Charles Dickens. (Summary from Wikipedia.org) English Fairy Tales by Joseph Jacobs Loyal Books Jack the Giant-Killer, Tom Thumb, Goldilocks and The Three Bears, Henny Penny, Dick Whittington, The Three Little Pigs, Red Riding Hood and a host of immortal characters are found in this delightful collection of English Fairy Tales by Joseph Jacobs. The book made its first appearance in 1890 and has remained a firm favorite with both young and old ever since. Fairy tales have traditionally emanated from France and Germany. The famous compilations by La Fontaine and the Brothers Grimm have overshadowed children's literature for centuries. Yet, many of the stories we recount to children today have an English origin, something that we were unaware of. The author, Joseph Jacobs, was an Australian folklorist and historian who painstakingly compiled them from various sources. In the preface to the first edition he recounts how he collected some stories from the descendants of English immigrants in America and Australia, while he sourced others from English gypsies and old ballads.
