Question by R - G: Why is the HSE's cancer care system with its "centres of excellence" such a joke?
Last time I had cancer, the local "cancer centre" was Letterkenny, 62km away.

I've relapsed. Letterkenny is now a "satellite" that does some things under supervision from its "parent centre", but I had to go to GALWAY which is 306km away for surgery, and rely on a volunteer from a local charity to make the 10 hour round trip to pick me up and take me home when I was released.
