Joye,

I also found out that Matthew Breen (who is also working on this study in 
North Carolina in concert with the lab at Fred Hutchinson) is known to the 
Berner community in the UK. It may have even been his influence that helped 
target the Bernese malignant histiocytosis as the best cancer to research in 
order to find better ways to detect chromosome aberrations associated with 
canine cancers.

AKC CHF Fundraiser - There is STILL TIME.......

2002-11-22 Thread Dr. William B. Neff
The drawing for the two gorgeous paintings that Willem Wijnberg painted for 
our AKC CHF Fundraiser to fight canine cancer will be on Thanksgiving Day. 
Both of these Berner paintings are just gorgeous and once you see them you 
are going to want to make a donation to help fight Cancer and to try to win 
one of these paintings.

The first painting (14 x 14 inches)  is of Yasper, the father of Willem's 
Berner, Dingo, who died from Malignant Histiocytosis.

The second painting (12 x 10 inches) is of Jean Cheesman's puppy, Sam (from 
England) who died about 3 years ago from cancer at the young age of six 
years.

Here is the website with all of the directions for entering the drawing:

Thank you, Karen Pickel, for once again making such a great website.  If 
you haven't visited the website, please take a minute to check it out. 
You'll be happy you did!!!

PLEASE support this very important fundraiser.   This is something that 
everyone can support.  If you know anyone who has lost a Berner to 
Malignant Histiocytosis, then you know the heartbreak that they have 
experienced.   Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to eradicate this 
terrible disease by supporting this study through our donations?   You can 
help.  It is NOT TOO LATE to send your checks to me.  Please send me an 
e-mail at:   [EMAIL PROTECTED] 	and tell me how much you are sending and how 
you would like me to distribute your tickets.  I will cover your check and 
put your tickets into the drawing, even if your check doesn't arrive in 
time for the drawing.  This is a fundraise that is vital to the lives of 
our current Berners and our future Berners.  Won't you please be part of 
the solution.   I am hoping to get an avalanch of checks over the next 
week.   Winston is waiting to be able pull a whole cartload of checks to 
the house from all of you generous Berner lovers.   We can do it.  Thanks 
in advance for your generosity!!

AKC CHF Fundraiser....there is STILL TIME to donate.....

2002-11-20 Thread Dr. William B. Neff
I've had a few messages from people saying that they would like to donate 
to our AKC CHF Fundraiser, but were afraid that their checks wouldn't 
arrive in time for the raffle.   NEVER FEAR!!!   I am a very trusting 
person and if you let me know what amount you are sending for the 
fundraiser and how you'd like me to distribute your tickets, I'll cover 
your check until it arrives.!!   The drawing is going to be on Thanksgiving 
Day - one week from tomorrow, so your check should arrive on time.   We 
want to raise a HUGE amount of money for Cancer research and you can be 
part of this effort to help our Berners.   Please send in your donations 
quickly so that we can have something to be really thankful for this 
Thanksgiving.

Here is the website that Karen Pickel made for our AKC CHF Fundraiser:

You just have to see the beautiful paintings that Willem Wijnberg painted 
for our fundraiser.   They are just gorgeous and once you see them you are 
going to want to make a donation to help fight Cancer and to try to win one 
of these paintings.

The first painting (14 x 14 inches)  is of Yasper, the father of Willem's

The second painting (12 x 10 inches) is of Jean Cheesman's puppy, Sam (from 
England) who died about 3 years ago from cancer at the young age of six 
years.

This is a fundraiser that is near to everyone's heart, whether you've lost 
a Berner to Malignant Histiocytosis, or knew a
Berner who died from this dreaded disease.   Won't you please be part of 
the solution and help by sending a check.  We can make a difference in our 
lifetime in the lives of our Berners, but it takes a lot of people, making 
donations to help fight cancer.  We can do it.  Thanks in advance for your 
generosity!!
