In a devastating message, a lady who was refused a cancer medication that may have extended her life announced her own death and urged people to “live your life and live it well.”
After spreading to her bones, back, neck, and pelvis, Rachel Davies was diagnosed with secondary breast cancer.
The 40-year-old confirmed that she is “no longer here” in a posthumously shared social media statement that went online on Thursday morning.
Davies had been an advocate for the medication Enhertu, which may extend the life expectancy of patients with a particular kind of incurable breast cancer by an average of six months. The NHS does not presently provide it.
The Swansea mother had previously told BBC Wales News that she believed her chances of success were good.
