A Vancouver Island family is heartbroken after learning the B.C. government won’t continue funding a vital drug treatment for Charleigh Pollock that her parents says is keeping her alive. Health Minister Josie Osborne announced the province’s decision Wednesday afternoon. “There is no evidence to support changing the discontinuation criteria, or to support the ministry continuing to provide coverage for Brineura given the advanced condition and stage of Charleigh’s condition,” Osborne said.
