Guest guest Posted November 9, 2001 Report Share Posted November 9, 2001 Hi Everyone! Let's all wish well tomorrow-she's going in for a medical test-and she's not feeling that well right now. A bunch of us from CHERAB had to get together for a publicity picture for the December Tree Lighting that is honoring CHERAB Foundation so I had a chance to see today and give her a hug. She is such an awesome person and is working hard to help all of our children and I'm so happy she's one of my friends. Thanks -and hope all goes well tomorrow!! Feel better soon!! Love, ===== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 12, 2001 Report Share Posted November 12, 2001 Hi everyone, Just wanted to let you know I'm back on track and running again. All went well, just waiting for some further test results but everything looks OK for now. , Thanks for your well wishes! Now back to business. The Christmas tree lighting is DEC 5 and I will be picking up the invites this week, and sending them out as soon as possible so please e-mail me at md070264@... (md070264 at aol.com) with your address or anyone else's that you think would like to come (family, friends etc. ALL are welcome) It will be a lovely and fun family evening with food, carolers, Santa, a huge, huge tree, etc. What a great way to start off the Holiday Season with family and friends. And since the Cherab Foundation is being honored this year and this is a media event every year with TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, etc., what more can you ask for to help us raise awareness about our children? I have some very exciting news, next week Nov. 19 my husband and I will be driving to Washington D.C to meet with our Congressmen Mike Ferguson. I can't wait. We will represent the CHERAB Foundation to discuss the issues as parents we are concerned about. Dr. Katz will also be attending this meeting with us to let Congressmen Ferguson know about the research the CHERAB Foundation has planned, and about the continued funding we will need for this very important study. We have heard that Congressmen Ferguson is looking forward to attending both the Tree Lighting and the CHERAB fundraiser on Feb 16. Speaking of the CHERAB Fundraiser even though Feb. sounds far away it really isn't. This will be a dinner dance held at Headquarters Plaza Hotel in town, NJ, there will be a cocktail hour with open bar all night, a gourmet dinner and dancing, a Chinese auction and much more. A great way to have fun and raise money for research. Everything we will be doing for this fundraiser will rely on donations, this is where I will be asking for your help. We need donations for the Chinese auction. It could be anything, if your Mother knits a baby blanket that would be nice, if your husband or wife gets tickets to a sports event through work we could use that, if you would like to donate a basket in your family name of books, toys, bath products that would be great too. I have my sister donating a fish tank and the fish from her pet store, my other sister will be making up a gourmet food basket and my other sister is donating a DVD player. I have my brother in law donating a TV and my cousins husband will be donating a queen size bed spread. I have Waterford coming from My Irish Cottage in Summit, Higgens and I will be going to business's in the area looking for other donations gift certificates for dinner lunch etc. Well, you get the picture. You don't have to live in Jersey to help. Anything or any time donated would be a great help. This is our chance to have some fun and raise money for the research that is so badly needed. You can send any donations to: CHERAB Foundation 6 5 7 Valley Road Box 339 Gillette, NJ 07933 Attn: de Poortere Director of Fundraising I know we all have busy lives and things to do, yet any help sent our way will be greatly appreciated and we will be on our way to helping to give our children a smile and a voice.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2001 Report Share Posted November 19, 2001 Dear Sheila, What great news!! I remember when I started Bobby on EFA's I didn't know what to expect. Each child is different and in some cases it may be a couple of weeks before you see any results but with Bobby it was days! It just wasn't just his speech it was everything, he was much happier more focused and even walked around the house humming and then singing. You'll see new changes every day and it gets better and better. Good luck and keep us posted!!

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2002 Report Share Posted June 13, 2002 - That is great news. People considering banding need to hear of the success others have had with insurance companies. Not everyone is turned down, but unfortunately, it is those who are turned down that they hear from the most! Don't feel bad for getting what you rightly deserve and pay for with your policy premiums! Good luck tomorrow.
