End-of-life care needs an investment pledge

We agree with your editorial (30 July) that while guidelines on end-of-life care are helpful, they are not enough without adequate resources. The ministerial review on choice at the end of life published earlier this year quantified the amount of investment required to achieve good end-of-life care at £130m a year. We urge the government to commit to this investment now to ensure that the resource is available to ensure this new guidance delivers the necessary improvements in care for people in the last days and weeks of their lives.

  1. Hi, I work in a communication company I want to
    share my testimony to the world, my name is maria cooker
    , i am from united kingdom in Belfast north
    Ireland, I was a stripper in a club I got effected with
    HIV due to the nature of my job, In April 15 2013 i
    was tested positive to HIV, This is not design to
    convince you but its just a personal health
    experience . I never taught doctor could ever get my
    HIV-AIDS cured with his healing herbal medicine, i have
    tried almost everything but I couldn’t find any
    solution on my disease, despite all these happening
    to me, i always spend a lot to buy a HIV drugs from
    hospital and taking some several medications but no
    relieve, until one day i was just browsing on the
    internet when i came across a great post of !
    Michelle! who truly said that she was been diagnose
    with HIV and was healed that very week through the
    help of this great powerful healing doctor ,I
    wonder why he is called the great papa AMADU, i
    never knew it was all because of the great and
    perfect work that he has been doing that is causing all
    this. so I quickly contacted him, and he ask me some
    few questions and so i did all the things he asked me
    to do,He ask me to buy some herbs and which I did
    for my cure,only to see that at the very day which he
    said i will be healed, all the strength that has left me
    before rush back and i becomes very strong and
    healthy, this disease almost kills my life all because
    of me, so i went to hospital to give the final test to
    the disease and the doctor said i am HIV negative, i
    am very amazed and happy about the healing doctor
    AMADU gave to me from the ancient part of Africa,
