Missed mammograms

My mother in law moved and was reassured by her GP that she'd get her 3 yearly mammogram. She didn't, they missed her, and she found a lump. Guess what...??? She has triple negative breast cancer and we might lose my kids grandmother 😡

My software developer husband obviously wants to fix the problem to avoid anyone else's mother/wife/sister going through this. He has set up a petition as there are huge cracks in the breast screening NHS system and it's failing women. He is hitting no end of brick walls to try and get in touch with the people who can make the change (politicians, NHS digital, GPs) so this is our only option. Please sign so we can prevent others going through brutal treatments and heartache. Share like mad and let's make a difference!

I’m so sorry. Signed.
My mum just got diagnosed from her regular scan, she’s been assured it’s not currently life threatening. These scans are so important.
