NHS to fund girl's costly drugs
Quote:
An eight-year-old girl with a rare degenerative condition will have her treatment funded by the NHS.
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde has agreed to pay the £100,000 a year enzyme replacement therapy needed for Hayleigh Reynolds.

Hayleigh, from Glasgow, has Hurler Syndrome, a disorder caused by a deficiency of an enzyme required to break down substances in the body.

Funding was initially refused for the therapy which is available in England.
Quote from BBC News Website

I am glad they have changed their decision, why should where you live affect what care and medication you get
