BUY A CARD = CANCER DONATION
by Charles Dobbs PhotographyA special thanks going out to the person who bought 4 cards of Butterfly Wish...
A special thanks going out to the person who bought 4 cards of Butterfly Wish Please know that your purchase and all the RedBubble proceeds received will be going to M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston Texas. Now for an update on my step-father. This week he was back at M.D. Anderson for tests to see how the recent round of chemotherapy is doing. The news was not good, but not bad either. The spots on his liver had only grown about 10%, however, the three lymph nodes in the area had grown by 50%. We are now at a decision phase. There is another chemo drug that can be tried, but the oncologist was not hopeful it would work. He did recommend it was time to start a clinical trial when one was available again. He also talked about a new drug that was only available in Europe that was having some good promise, but was not available in the U.S. and was also VERY expensive. So…decisions have to be made what to do at this point. Sigh… If you are wondering where I have been, well, I am working again. The company that laid me off as a contractor, has rehired me as a contractor in another department. I started last week and have been pretty busy learning all the new stuff. This week I have been sick and after I get home from work it is off to bed as I was trying to get over this crap. Didn’t work, I was just miserable all week and finally had to go to the doctor this afternoon. I will try and catch up with everyone’s work as soon as the snot faucet stops flowing from my nose. =( CD

Noe's Works during Chemotherapy 1/8 "Yolked Heart"

Dearest friends, I am pleased to introduce my first of a series of divided hearts all on canvas and painted with Acrylic media. I have also used Cheese cloth, Painter’s Putty, fabric glue, and a lot of love. This work is special to me and will not be available for sale for quite some time. My hope is for feedback. Later as time and weeks go by I hope to introduce “The Affectionate Middle Finger” all on canvas and painted with Acrylic paint. The hand paintings are an attitude of Noe’s love for a mysterious female deity. She comes from the West and sometimes watches “The Green Flash”... Can you relate?

This is a graphically painted digital self portrait of me without hair. The yellow running through the skin signifies chemotherapy and medicine, the pink; breast cancer and the blue; emotive upheaval and resolution.

Modeled on a famous Renaissance piece I created this as a quirky statement about the breast cancer journey. Having a ‘breast friend’ help you go through this scary time is imperative. Having a sense of humour was as well.
-
Digital painting breast cancer version of the famous ‘Olympia’. One breast or two? I tried to paint this in a contemporary, satirical manner that twists a tradition theme on it’s edge, tradition beauty versus reality after breast surgery.
-
Digital Photoshop painting modeled on the famous nude by Ingres- but with a ‘chemo cutie’ instead for the model. When a group of us were being made over with makeup we all posed (clothed!) in big white hats and big smiles…

This is my 12 year old puppy Mattie. Isn’t she beautiful? She is my life, she is my muse. I’m downloading many photos of Mattie in hopes of raising money. She recently passed away after fighting liver cancer. She fought the horrible disease for 2 months with chemotherapy, but in the end it took her life. The last chemo session, she looked at me and softly said she was tired. So, I took her home and made a bed on the floor for the 2 of us and I held her through the night until she passed away in my arms the next morning. She is missed every second of every day, but she will live on forever in the hearts of everyone she met and new. So every t-shirt and piece of artwork I sell will go to paying off her final $10,000 of doctor bills. I love you my perfect angel. / To make donations visit htp://www.samitha.org/mattiecancerfund.htm

Mattie's Cancer Battle

Last week, Mattie was given the worst news a cancer patient can get. They found many more tumors on her liver which means the chemo was not at all helping. She and I decided to get a second opinion and start her on some holistic remedies. She was doing great, still chasing ducks & playing outside with grandpa. But yesterday she started bleeding from her mouth and had to rush her to the emergency clinic. There was so much blood and by the time we reached the clinic, she couldn’t walk. One or more of the tumors has mastisized and blood began to build up in her abdomen. A horrible vet walked in and unemotionally told me to murder my child because I was cruelly causing her extreme pain, but I just couldn’t. I couldn’t murder my own child. I yelled at her to leave me with my child and give me another vet. My dad took off work and rushed to the clinic to help us, but when he saw her face, her perfect sweet kind face, he couldn’t do it either. She was still lifting her head and barking at the puppies in the other room, and wagging her tail, and man did her ears perk up when her grandpa came in. Her ears perked up and she quickly sat up for grandpa to pet her head. After that, a wonderful vet, Dr, Boon,came in & sat on the floor by Mattie and assured me that the other vet was wrong and would be reported to the owners. She said Mattie was not in any pain, just discomfort and pressure. So, she gave Mattie a pain patch and some meds to help with the bleeding and we took her home. I stayed with her all night. She tried to get up a few times but she just couldn’t go far without toppling over. So I just made a pallet beside her bed and held her hand all night and prayed for God to do whatever it took to make her comfortable and happy again. When we woke up this morning, she wasn’t looking well at all and I could feel it was almost time. I was going to go get some sub-q fluids to help her with dehydration but just after I got off the phone with the vet, she looked up at me, took her last 3 breaths and became still in my arms. It took less than a minute, but I was holding her head and telling her how perfect and brave she is and grandma was on the other telling her that it’s all ok. I held her for a long time in my arms and she looked just as beautiful and perfect as she’s always been. I’m so happy that she’s at peace now but I don’t know how I’m going to be able to live without her. I miss her so much.

In 2000, my ten year old son was diagnosed with a brain tumor. In total he has had 6 weeks of daily radiation, 28 months of chemo, 3 1/2 years of growth hormone therapy, and more MRI’s, tests, weekly blood counts, hair loss, surgeries, needle pokes, ophthalmology and oncology appointments, and blood transfusions than we can count. Last summer during a routine MRI it was discoverd his tumor was starting to grow again. It’s located on the optic chiasm, so the concern is that increased growth means more pressure on the optic nerves, and Jake is then at a greater risk for losing more of his vision. He is legally blind so saving what vision he has left is one of the most important things to us all. Last June he started chemo for a second time. The treatment plan was to end chemo in late fall, but his body has other plans. Due to allergic reactions to his chemotherapy drugs, his treatment ended several months early. All we could do were MRI’s every three months to check the growth. Only time would tell if Jake would benefit from the months of chemo he had. The next few scans showed the tumor was stable and had no new growth. For now we are holding it at bay! The good news is that Jake’s blood counts are back to normal, he’s full of energy, and normal 17 year old sarcasm. He is a straight A senior and is on his way to college next fall to study film. His dream is to become a movie director. If someone close to you has cancer, now is the time to take a stand and keep hope alive! Advocate for those you love and tell cancer we’re not gonna take it anymore! This is their year to conquer. Together we can kick cancer’s butt for good!
