This weblog is specially dedicated to my very good friend, Cynthia and her daughter Charmaine, who is my god daughter.
Our feisty princess Charmaine has been diagnosed with neuroblastoma. She is currently in the 4th stage and fighting hard. We are greatly saddened that such a sweet and cheerful little girl has to undergo so much pain and suffering at such a young age.
I'm using this blog as a platform for anyone who wishes to share your stories and experience of having somebody close to you suffering from cancer. Please share your personal experience with neuroblastoma if possible. I would also appreciate if you could leave comments of encouragement for Cynthia and Charmaine. Do sign off with your name or a pseudonym for us to remember you by. =)
To know more about Charmaine and family, please go to
http://ourfeistyprincess.com/In order for us to help Charmaine fight this cancer battle, we require our friends and people who know us to help raise funds for the substantial medical expenses and the expensive treatments.
We would also appreciate if you wish to make alternative contribution arrangements.
If you are keen in donating or helping Cynthia and her family in any way, you may:
- Contact the feisty team at ourfeistyprincess@gmail.com.
- Click here for more information on direct funds donation.At the very most if you are unable to contribute at this point of time, please take a little time to click on the nuffnang ads above. All proceeds would go into Charmaine's funds.
If you are new to this site, kindly click

Thank you very much.
With warmest regards,
Jolene
Edited to add on 26 June 2009:Doubling Charmaine's chances of survivalThere is an alternative form of treatment for neuroblastoma offered in the US which could double Charmaine's chances of survival. The drug used in the treatment is known as 3F8, which is produced by the white blood cells of mice.
These antibodies are given intravenously to a patient and will circulate in the bloodstream till they attach to a neuroblastoma cell. The patient's own immune system will then attack and kill the neuroblastoma cell.
This treatment has been used in more than 500 patients since 1987.

Dear all who read this blog and takes the trouble to leave comments, I urge everyone who are healthy and able enough to donate blood to do so, especially if you are O+ blood type (that's Char's blood type i've been given to understand), so that the blood bank will continuously be replenished and Char won't run out of blood for her transfusion and other people with such needs would not be deprived either. :)
how does it goes charmaine right now? still have fever? does she feel better..?
claudio
Hi Charmaine, Aunty Eunice has just said a prayer for you. Hope your fever subsided, sleep longer hours. May the angels be with you so you have sweet dreams.
Jia You.
May God give you the strength that you need an guide you thru HIS way.
Amen
