cancer research, by e15makaveli on Jan 6, 2009 22:48:41 GMT 1, alright people
my girlfriend is raising money for cancer research uk and is doing various fundraisers. she is going on a trek either through the inca trails in peru or going to trek along the great wall of china to help raise money for the charity, recently my girlfriends Uncle has been diagnosed with lung cancer and this has affected her immensely and she is trying to do all she can to help her uncle and other sufferers alike by raising what she can for the charity, i am sure most if not all of you on the forum have been affected by cancer in one way or another, there is no set amount you have to donate, every penny really does help.
my girlfriend has already put aside her money to fund the trip and donated a small amount herself, the link below will take you to her page that she has just made if you would like to have a look, make a payment or track her progress over the next year. A bonus that this site provides is that the site donates an extra 25% of whatever you donate to another charity.
Sorry this is not art related but i felt i should share it with you guys and hope if you have a few spare pennies knocking around that you could put it to a good cause.

cancer research, by ricobenfico on Jan 6, 2009 23:15:54 GMT 1, And we're past the 15 mark. It's only a little but as you say, every little helps(!). I have personally been affected by cancer and donate on a monthly basis to Maggies who really helped me through some difficult times and who I feel are still there for me if I need them. Worth looking into Maggies Cancer Caring Centres if you are near one. www.maggiescentres.org/
All the very best.

cancer research, by Deleted on Jan 8, 2009 0:26:12 GMT 1, i spent yesterday afternoon in Bristol Childrens hospital's Oncology department waiting for some results(everything was OK). Whilst i was waiting about 5 Children suffering from either Lukemia or Cancer of some sort played in the toy area whilst their parents looked on. seeing famalies suffering like that was almost unbearable for me. I couldnt hold back the tears and even now as i type this my eyes are filling up again. I have also had a close friend die recently and have another 2 suffering at the moment. i'll be giving some money as soon as i can find my card in the morning.

cancer research, by e15makaveli on Jan 9, 2009 0:41:24 GMT 1, yeah i got messed around so much with it, they emailed me twice saying firstly i had won the chance to buy a lovemaker then again saying ignore the previous post as i had won the bethlehem print, i contacted them asking them to clarify the emails and simon said i had won a bethlehem, i was over the moon thinking id won, then they email me asking me to pay within an hour or they will give it to somebody else? total screw job i think. anyway i will be selling most of what i have to give to my girlfriend and her cause, and ive had some good responses from some artists offering up works for me to auction for the cause, i hope we can raise a few quid to help, id willingly pay more than i usually would for a piece if i knew somebody wasnt pocketing it but a great charity was
cheers slammer

cancer research, by cadeallaw on Jan 22, 2009 22:55:53 GMT 1, I'm a cancer survivor myself: I went through chemotherapy on 3 different occassions in 2006 and 2007. eventually, because it kept coming back, I was treated with high dose chemotherapy and had 2 stem cell transplants. My cure rate was down to about 25% but that least treatment seems to have taken and i'm now in the 90% range. I've been cancer free since about June of 2007
