Kenneth Cope, who plays Coronation Street's Jed Stone, has revealed to The News of the World how doctors wrongly diagnosed him with cancer and he spent six years waiting to die, only to be told doctors had made a mistake!
After six years of heartache, doctors admitted they’d got it wrong and he’d never had cancer at all.
Kenneth told the paper: “All I want is an apology from the NHS. It is disgusting that they have put myself and my family through such anguish and heartache.”

I can believe only too well Ken's trouble in getting the NHS to apolgise.
I was saddened that one of T.V.'s old time celebraties had had such a bad time of it having been misdiagnosed.
My father had myeloid leukaemia and died in agony after being denied his prescribed morphine.
His story was in the Patients Association Report 27/8/09 BUT we still have not had an apology 4 years on!
www.tomsanguish.com tells of the corrupt system that is all throughout the NHS!
