THE partner of music legend Tony Wilson has spoken of her disgust at the cancer drugs lottery which denied him NHS treatment in his final months. Yvette Livesey said it was `soul destroying' for cancer patients to be told that it was too expensive for doctors to prescribe drugs. She called on the government to review the system of research and trialling of drugs and said the medical watchdog, the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence should speed up access to drugs.
