I READ the very sad story on the front page of the Guardian about four-week-old Bobby Brown and my heart goes out to him and his mum and dad.

I wish him all the luck in the world and I hope the next time he is in the Guardian it will be a very different story.

It is very hard to understand why this lovely little boy has to travel so far in such a short space of time to get the treatment he needs so badly.

What is wrong with this country that children have to go so far? Why are we so behind the times? It does not make any sense.

I know I will be thinking about baby Bobby and wishing him well as I am sure lots of other people will.
