Newcastle health care worker Michelle Robson's life has been | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
transformed since she startdd taking it six months ago. | :01:53. | :01:53. | |
After the first month, my cough was gone. | :01:54. | :01:55. | |
I work full time, I run a house have two children. | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
The other drugs I've been on make you feel absolutely horrendous. | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
This one, I can leave work, go get it, | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
Kadcyla makes such a huge advance because it delivers | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
toxins straight into the cancer cell, meaning thdy don't | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
spread around the body and produce the debilitating side`effects | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
But a year's treatment costs ?90,00 . | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
Those in charge of NHS medicines say that is too expensive to | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
The NHS has to recognise it has to provide for all diseases and | :02:26. | :02:33. | |
so it has to balance the benefits that a new treatment brings with | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
We have a standard approach to that ` extra flexibility | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
for cancer drugs but even whth that, the price is simply far too great to | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
For Michelle and her consultant though, | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
Michelle is a young woman, she's working, she has young children, and | :02:53. | :02:59. | |
I do not think you can put ` price on the next Christmas or the next | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
Those are the memories that those kids will carry with them | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
It's about people's lives and their value in society. | :03:08. | :03:15. | |
These suits sit behind a desk and make these decisions without getting | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
out there and asking patients, seeing the difference that it makes. | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
Could they sit and to my family, sorry, can't afford this. | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
For now, doctors will still be able to apply to a special fund to | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
But as that pot of money runs out in 2016 there is | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
a huge question mark over treatment that is not yet curing patients | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
but is giving patients up to six extra month of extra qualitx life | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
`` an average of an extra shx months. | :03:46. | :03:58. | |
It's emerged that three men, arrested in Borneo over the killing | :03:59. | :04:02. | |

rare eye condition and earlher this rare eye condition and earlier this | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
year, her parents received the news they had dreaded, their | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
seven`year`old daughter is now blind. But now she's making | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
progress, and this weekend there is a big event to raise money for | :06:52. | :06:52. | |
research into her condition. Losing her sight was always a risk, | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
but when it happened, the impact was particularly severe bec`use Ella | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
is classed as deaf`blind. Struggling to hear and now blind as | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
well meant relearning everything. It really brought it home to us how | :07:03. | :07:10. | |
entirely different life was, going from having some navigation`l vision | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
to bumping into everything, walking into things, becoming very | :07:17. | :07:18. | |
distressed, very upset. Ella has had to learn again | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
from scratch, She's risen to it, | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
as she does with everything. Ella was born with aniridia, a rare | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
eye condition. Numerous operations | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
failed to save her sight. She couldn't come to me and say, | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
it failed today, I'm having a bad time, I can't see, | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
it is really getting to me. But now she has interpreters | :07:45. | :07:47. | |

for a study into her condition We have a group of 21 guys | :08:03. | :08:08. | |
and girls who will be riding with us Last year we had a fantastic weather | :08:09. | :08:15. | |
but this year we are in for It is hoped the bike ride will raise | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
?12,000 to add to the ?100,000 they have alre`dy | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
raised, also for research that might Fingers crossed, | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
the funding will eventually help Ella, and until that point we will | :08:33. | :08:40. | |
just keep her eyes as healthy as we can, and hope in the future that | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
she will have some sight restored. We wish her all the very best. | :08:45. | :09:08. | |

surprised that Lady Sybil would want to do her bit. 1700 properties | :10:57. | :10:57. | |
to do her bit. 1700 properthes around Britain were offered to the | :10:58. | :11:00. | |

a hospital ward. That was just the start, and Lady Sybil would be in | :11:17. | :11:22. | |
charge. A lot of it came from the family's sense of duty. What could | :11:23. | :11:27. | |

400 patients. There were rooms upstairs, too. It became quite | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
crowded and after a big battle, they would get patients that werd not | :11:55. | :12:01. | |
just convalescing, they would come straight from the battlefield, | :12:02. | :12:02. | |
because the big hospitals were full, because the big hospitals were full, | :12:03. | :12:06. | |

amazing story. He has been praised by the Prime | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
Minister and honoured by a former American President. One of the men | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
who helped create and run the RSPB Saltholme nature reserve on Deeside | :14:21. | :14:27. | |
is to receive a Point Of Light award. These awards were set up by | :14:28. | :14:29. | |
George W Bush to honour voltnteers George W Bush to honour volunteers | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
who have made a difference to society. This special report. | :14:35. | :14:43. | |
It was the most unlikely tourist attraction, | :14:44. | :14:52. | |
nestled between Teeside's chemical and heavy industry. | :14:53. | :14:53. | |
The site was once earmarked for nuclear waste dump, | :14:54. | :14:55. | |
but now it's become a naturd reserve of international importance | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
and the man who helped make it all happen is now being honoured. | :14:59. | :15:01. | |
What you see here is 16 years of tireless efforts | :15:02. | :15:05. | |
and it's a thank you to all the people who have made this happen. | :15:06. | :15:09. | |
And it's a recognition of volunteers who do this free of charge. | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
For neighbouring businesses and heavy industries, once sworn | :15:15. | :15:22. | |
And over the years, some of Britain's more spectacular birds | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
like these peregrine falcons have flown past Saltholme and made their | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
nests across the road at thd centre of a huge, noisy chemical works. | :15:32. | :15:40. | |
The worries that the reserve would bring problems to | :15:41. | :15:42. | |
the doorstep of the local btsinesses are now long gone. | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
Industry had concerns, there might be security isstes with | :15:47. | :15:54. | |
people coming onto an industrial context like this. | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
Thankfully, none of those concerns have materialised. | :15:59. | :16:00. | |
We have people, we have indtstry and we have nature conservation. | :16:01. | :16:03. | |
Managers here say over the last five years, Saltholme has attracted an | :16:04. | :16:12. | |
Now, of that number, around 17,000 come from outside of the arda, | :16:13. | :16:21. | |
All of those visitors bring with them money and it is said that this | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
nature reserve brings about ?1.7 million a year to | :16:27. | :16:28. | |
Now a huge expansion plan would see the nature reservd grow | :16:29. | :16:37. | |
Managers are in talks with local businesses, landowners and the | :16:38. | :16:44. | |
council to buy or take over the necessary land. | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
We are hoping to have 3000 `cres and we are hoping more importantly | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
to bring it up to a conservation standard. | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
Most of the land here is of poor ecological value. | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
And we want to open it to the public and let them enjoy it. | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
Work on that huge expansion is expected to start as early | :17:06. | :17:08. | |
Saltholme looks set to attract the magic figure of 100,000 vishtors | :17:09. | :17:18. | |
It looks fabulous. Incongruous but amazing. | :17:19. | :17:37. | |
Time for sport and time for the football season to start. Yds, | :17:38. | :17:39. | |
Time for sport and time for the football season to start. Yes, but | :17:40. | :17:40. | |
just hang on for a couple of minutes. | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
Sunderland have become the latest Premier League club to | :17:46. | :17:47. | |
delve into the American market by signing a partnership with | :17:48. | :17:50. | |
The agreement will see the two clubs promoting each other and sharing | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
Meanwhile, the Wearsiders h`ve been parading their most eye`catching | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
summer recruit so far ` ex`Manchester City and Everton | :17:58. | :17:59. | |
Showing off his new colours today at the club's training ground, Jack | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
Rodwell is just the latest young Englishman to have found hilself | :18:05. | :18:07. | |
squeezed out of a big`money club by the sheer money number of foreign | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
stars, but he's not bitter at having to | :18:11. | :18:12. | |
Yes, it is tough and a challenge, but as youngsters and English | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
and footballers, you want to be challenged, and that's the way it | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
so sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't and this is a new | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
challenge for me now, coming to a team that I don't really know much | :18:29. | :18:32. | |
It is a new challenge and it's good to be challenged. | :18:33. | :18:38. | |
Sunderland have had the upper hand in recent medtings | :18:39. | :18:40. | |
with City apart from the Capital One Cup final at Wembley, but even that | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
worked in their favour when it came to sealing this particular deal. | :18:45. | :18:48. | |
Definitely, I have seen the fans there and the passion | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
I know Dennis Tueart quite well as well. | :18:52. | :18:57. | |
He was a great player and did really well for Sunderland. | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
I know his son as well and he told me about the passion of the club. | :19:02. | :19:04. | |
For me, they have not done as well as what they could do | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
With the new manager now, he seems to be really good | :19:09. | :19:11. | |
and comes across well in my opinion and most of the lads think that as | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
well, as so we have got a good chance this year to push up the | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
league. It would certainly help that push if manager Gus Poyet could | :19:20. | :19:21. | |
persuade Fabio Borini to accept that ?14m move from Liverpool. | :19:22. | :19:24. | |
The Uruguayan says he is still hopeful. | :19:25. | :19:32. | |
We've had the World Cup, the Tour de France in Yorkshire | :19:33. | :19:39. | |
and the Commonwealth Games, so major sporting events have hardly | :19:40. | :19:42. | |
But most football fans have been counting down the days to | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
Sunderland and Newcastle have another week to | :19:47. | :19:49. | |
wait but the new Football League campaign kicks off this weekend | :19:50. | :19:51. | |
Many believe Middlesbrough will push for a Championship play`off place. | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
It's five years since they were relegated from the Premier League | :19:56. | :19:57. | |
but head coach Aitor Karanka has had money to spend, including ndarly | :19:58. | :20:00. | |
three million on a Spanish striker, and he's been busy networking ` | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
persuading talented young ddfender Kenneth Omeruo to return | :20:05. | :20:07. | |
One of the main reasons why I'm here, it's easier to go back to the | :20:08. | :20:21. | |
place where you are loved and where you can feel free to play your | :20:22. | :20:25. | |
best, and go to a new club `nd you can feel free to play your | :20:26. | :20:27. | |
best, and go to a new club and have to start over again. | :20:28. | :20:39. | |

Pools boss Colin Cooper has gone back to the future this summer, | :20:45. | :20:47. | |

brought in, not only are thdre technically good footballers but | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
they bring a wealth of experience and add an awful lot. | :20:59. | :21:00. | |

Promoted Luton will arrive at Brunton Park with | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
a big following and a big budget but Kavanagh is quietly | :21:22. | :21:24. | |
We have brought the nucleus of the new team together and I am hoping | :21:25. | :21:36. | |
that it hits the ground running and that they gel. If we get a good win | :21:37. | :21:43. | |
I think it will give everybody a boost. In the last stage and | :21:44. | :21:46. | |
everything has been really positive. It will give us that extra bit of | :21:47. | :21:48. | |
edge. Full commentary of | :21:49. | :21:50. | |

Indeed. Now, a hard luck story with a happy ending. He lived rough for | :22:42. | :22:47. | |
15 years on the docks. It is not Paul Mooney, is it? And last in a | :22:48. | :22:52. | |
fight with his brother... No, it is not Paul. | :22:53. | :22:57. | |
No, but things are just looking better for Brighton. `` for Nelson. | :22:58. | :23:03. | |
The 20`year`old multi`has just been named Cat Of The Year. . | :23:04. | :23:13. | |
This is Nelson, the one eyed former stray cat who is used up a fair | :23:14. | :23:15. | |
share of his nine lives during the share of his nine lives durhng the | :23:16. | :23:23. | |
last 20 years. Life hasn't been easy for Nelson from the start. As a | :23:24. | :23:26. | |
kitten, he and his brothers and sisters were thrown into a bag and | :23:27. | :23:29. | |
thrown into the water here at sisters were thrown into a bag and | :23:30. | :23:30. | |
thrown into the water here at Seaham docks. He and his brother strvived, | :23:31. | :23:35. | |
fished out by a lobster fisherman, and they lived in a tin hat here to | :23:36. | :23:41. | |
15 years. I first started working around the marina about 2003. Nelson | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
was being looked after by the fishermen who ran the dock. During | :23:47. | :23:52. | |
that time at the docks, Nelson lost his eye in a fight with his brother. | :23:53. | :23:56. | |
The word is they had a disagreement over a mouse. But then he befriended | :23:57. | :23:58. | |
Andrea and the rest, as thex say, over a mouse. But then he bdfriended | :23:59. | :24:00. | |
Andrea and the rest, as they say, is history. One bitterly cold November | :24:01. | :24:04. | |
night, he just followed us up to the night, he just followed us tp to the | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
car park and adopted us, basically, and decided, I'm coming with you. | :24:10. | :24:17. | |
This years National Cat Of The Year is... Nelson! But it was his | :24:18. | :24:23. | |
incredible life story that persuaded the Cats protection charity to | :24:24. | :24:28. | |
choose him as their Cat Of The Year at a ceremony in London last night. | :24:29. | :24:34. | |
Is a little here! He has brought tears to the eyes! Are you proud of | :24:35. | :24:40. | |
him? Yes, very much. His owners are thrilled to have found him and | :24:41. | :24:42. | |
him? Yes, very much. His owners are thrilled to have found him `nd it | :24:43. | :24:43. | |
looks as though Nelson is pretty content, too. | :24:44. | :24:53. | |

market goodbye. Martin Freeman presents a Gaza | :27:46. | :28:02. | |
Crisis appeal on behalf of the Disasters Emergency Committee. | :28:03. | :28:09. | |
Over the last month the crisis in Gaza has captured the world's | :28:10. | :28:12. | |
attention. Military conflict has been taking a | :28:13. | :28:14. | |
devastating toll on a densely-populated area. | :28:15. | :28:18. | |
So tens of thousands of people have nowhere to live and nowhere else to | :28:19. | :28:25. | |
go. The conflict means that the people | :28:26. | :28:31. | |
of Gaza are in great need. Thousands of exhausted families are | :28:32. | :28:35. | |
living in temporary shelters ? facing a very uncertain future. | :28:36. | :28:41. | |
The DEC estimates over a million people don't even have access to | :28:42. | :28:46. | |
enough clean water. These people desperately need your | :28:47. | :28:52. | |
help. That's why The Disasters Emergency | :28:53. | :28:54. | |
Committee or DEC ? an umbrella | :28:55. | :28:56. |
