Firstly, when her hair grew back after she lost it, it grew in so unbelievably soft, like baby bird down, and it was extremely healthy.
She never had curly hair before, only barely wavy, but when it grew back, it was very curly…
Mom’s hair still very Continue Reading…

We received an email this week from Chris, one of our networking friends, and we wanted to share it with you on Cancer Info Today!
Please read on, and be an encouragement!

Chris Zavadowski here with a very personal update and request for my Dad…
You may have realized that I’ve been “quieter” on the blog and with my emails for much of this year. There’s a good reason for that. And it’s time let you know why…
http://www.mlmblog.com/personal-cancer-update.html
Toward the beginning of this year my Dad, Rich Zavadowski (one of my close friends), became very ill…so bad that he had to stay home from work.
After almost 3 months of testing, biopsies and baffling the doctors, we finally got word that he has a rare T-cell lymphoma (a highly aggressive stage IV cancer).
Because this is such a rare cancer, his best treatment option ended up being an experimental chemotherapy regimen at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). It’s a rougher chemo administered over 5 days each cycle…for 4 months.
Chances are you or a loved one have been touched by cancer, so you know first-hand how emotional and scary this journey is for an entire family.
That’s where YOU (and my personal favor) come in…
Years ago, when my Mom was fighting breast cancer, I asked for your help and support to send her kind words. With a great dose of humanity and understanding, my subscribers flooded her inbox with prayers, support and kind words that brought many smiles and helped her face the surgeries, treatment and the unknown.
Today, just like I did with her years ago, I’d like to ask you to leave a comment on my blog with an inspirational thought or ‘get well’ message for my Dad, Rich Zavadowski.
==> http://www.mlmblog.com/personal-cancer-update.html
I’m going to print the comments off and put them in a “Happy Thoughts” binder I’ve created for him to chronicle the outpouring of support (and emails) we’ve been receiving from family and friends online. Your kind words posted here will go directly into this special book for him.
Check out the full story (and see a pic of us) here: http://www.mlmblog.com/personal-cancer-update.html
Thanks in advance for this personal favor and for your understanding…
Warmly,
Chris Zavadowski
P.S. - With cancer and the drugs he’s on, there are some very tense, depressing days, so when he’s a little down or needs a “pick me up” to get his head back in the right place, he can just turn to these comments page and see how much positive energy is coming his way.
It’ll help give him strength for when he beats this cancer and returns back to a normal life!

I encourage you to head over there to send some encouraging thoughts for Chris’ dad! Thank you!

Firstly, have you ever heard of C’Elle? I hadn’t heard of it until a few weeks ago, and I was stopped in my tracks, literally!
Basically, it is revolutionary! It’s a new way to collect non-controversial, potentially life-saving stem cells that could be used for either future health problems with yourself, or family members of blood relation with the use of the cells harvested from menstrual blood.
This is exclusive to C’Elle and the scientific study was recently published in the prestigious Journal of Cell Transplantation. Click the link to find out About the Science of it all.
Depending upon technology, so many diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, Diabetes, Heart Disease, Stroke, MS, and Parkinson’s, just to name a few, could be treated with stem cells.
Okay, you’ve heard of stem cell research before and all of the awful stigma surrounding it, right? Questionable sources, difficulty of collection and safety as well…
Well, as I said earlier, this is a non-controversial way of collecting stem cells…
“How?”, you may ask…
Well, it is safely collected in the comfort of your own home yourself from menstrual blood. The kit is easy to use, not painful and collection can be done in privacy…on your own terms…
What is it About Menstrual Blood that Makes This Possible?
C’elle menstrual stem cells have been shown to demonstrate the ability to differentiate into other cell types such as heart muscle, cartilage, nerve and bone stem cells.
This not only means that many of the diseases I listed above could be cured or treated in yourself or loved ones, but there are also many other cosmeceutical uses, such as anti-aging and wound-healing.
What is AMAZING is that menstrual cells match 100% the woman who donated them, and would possibly match her first degree relatives - for example, her children, parents, siblings…
Why This Stopped Me in My Tracks…
We lost my father 2 years ago to a very rare cancer…My mother was diagnosed with cancer the same week we lost my father…
So, my reason for being so intrigued lies in the health of my parents, my future children, and my sisters…
If there is a possibility to be able to help my loved ones, or possibly myself in the future, from suffering a terrible disease, then this would all be worth it!!!
I have seen the effects of Parkinson’s in my grandfather, Diabetes in my husband’s grandad, Alzheimer’s in my uncle and grandmother’s husband…Tough to watch loved ones suffer needlessly if there is something, anything, that we could do to help!
Watch this video testimonial for another woman’s reason: C’elle Client Testimonial
Sounds like it could be pricey, Right?
Well, C’Elle has a limited-time offer, “Caring is Sharing”, whereby which you can purchase C’elle and receive a FREE C’elle service to gift to your best friend or loved one. Check it out here: C’elle

Rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare cancer that little children get in their extremities.
“Rhabdomyosarcoma is a fast-growing, highly malignant tumor which accounts for over half of the soft tissue sarcomas in children. Less frequently, other soft tissue sarcomas are found in children: fibrosarcoma, mesenchymoma, synovial sarcoma, and liposarcoma.
Rhabdomyosarcoma often causes a noticeable lump on a child’s body. If the tumor is located internally, the symptoms depend on its location. For example, tumors in the nasal passage may put pressure on the eustachian tubes; a bladder tumor can cause trouble urinating; an orbital tumor may cause the eye to protrude.” (http://www.acor.org/ped-on
More rarely, as in the case of my father, adults can present with this type of cancer. My father was 1 of 6 people in North America who had this cancer as an adult.
Photo left: My husband, Kenney, Me, my Mother & my Father - Christmas 2005
Therefore, no research is done on this type of adult onset cancer, and people in this situation are thrown into the gauntlet as doctors try anything they can think of at them. There is no specific treatment regimen, and most doctors are at a loss.
Basically, as the oncologist told my father on the 1st visit, this cancer will kill you. He gave my father 3 months when the tumor was the size of a marble. Scary, as this is a very aggressive cancer. My father lived 1 1/2 yrs, and this was a great blessing!
Help us inform people about this type of cancer, and the fact that almost no research is done, and give these patients hope!
I have created a group on Facebook called:
Rhabdomyosarcoma - Help Fight It & Inform Others
* I personally invite you all to join and interact with this group. Please share of your experiences…Knowledge is Power…If you can give 1 tip, it might just save a life, a family, a broken heart…
This group has discussions, posts, relevant links, video, photos and more…
This Group is in Loving Memory of my father, Gerald M. Turner, the greatest man and father I have ever known.

An Official Congratulations to my mother for officially finishing her cancer treatments.
The last year has been a preventative treatment, but they were hard on her nonetheless!
So, we are so proud of her for finishing them up, and are so glad she can move on to a different chapter of her life!
My mother is a 2 yr Breast Cancer Survivor!
Love You Mom!
