Alexandra says: 'I'm living a normal life like I don't have cancer. I'm an active mum to my seven-year-old son. I'm working and riding my horses. I don't have to travel to Melbourne for treatment. I'm taking one tablet, morning and night, with basically no side-effects. This is not a cure, but what is important is my quality of life which I have now and that I do not have to worry about finding $8,000 a month for treatment now it has been listed on the PBS.' I am proud that my government is making a difference for Alexandra and thousands of other Australians. (Time expired)
