On yesterday's show there was a debate on whether bells should be banned/moved, one women who has secondary cancer called them "cruel and divisive" - would be interested to hear what other cancer patients think.
I watched this morning and can see both opinions, I rang the bell when I finished my radiotherapy, it seems strange but it does make a difference, it's something to aim for and a celebration when you have finished your treatment, maybe put it somewhere else.

I didn't ring the bell but took great delight in watching others ring it. If it was moved then others couldn't join in the celebrations and how practical is it to move the bell? I have to say I agreed with the mum whose little boy rang the bell, I can see how this bell would motivate and give hope to his family and other cancer patients - without hope - what have we got?
