This week we had an interesting and disturbing discussion with someone who has recently recovered from Oesophageal cancer. In 2021 it was estimated that there would be over 1648 new cases in Australia and is commonly found in the lower section of the oesophagus, adjoining the stomach.

We were pleased to hear about the success they had with the treatment but were very concerned when they explained that if they were transported in an ambulance and the crew were unaware of cancer, then if they were laid flat there was a danger that they could choke.
