Christo Erasmus is 13 years old. In February this yearhe was diagnosed with CMML, chronic myelomonocyticleukemia, which is very rare in children his age.
It all started with an abscess last year in October. Anti-biotics and hospitalisation didn’t clear it up and inFebruary they got the shocking diagnosis – cancer.
He was treated with chemotherapy, which has made himvery sick. He has battled a number of infections andoften needs platelet transfusions. The family was hopingthat after he had completed the course of chemotherapy,he would be in remission, but sadly this was not to be.
The only hope for Christo for a permanent cure is a stemcell bone marrow transplant. The cost of finding a donorcan run into the hundreds of thousands which this familydoes not have.
All Hands On Dec Friends wants to help Christo to raisethe money so that he can beat this ugly monster in hisblood and go on to live a healthy cancer-free life andfulfil all his dreams.
He has been through so much, yet he still keeps a smileon his face and has a positive attitude, which is half thebattle won.
Help us to help him to win the other half of the battle.
Let this also be a reminder of how important it is todonate blood, platelets and to sign up to become a stemcell bone marrow donor. You could save a life and afamily from going through what we as a family wentthrough when we lost our 8 month old baby, Declan, tothe cancer monster.

Laat jou tong deur die HeiligeGees beheers!
Jaloesie, afguns en geld speel 'n groot rolwaar dit kom by 'n "listige tong"....... ja, totselfs "vrees", vrees vir mislukking. Asgevolg van ons eie swakheid, lae of geenselfbeeld, draai ons dikwels die spieel na'n ander omdat ons nie ons eie foute wilraak sien of erken nie!
Ons doen dit deurdat ons kwaadspreekoor ander. Kwaadspraak is om valslik ooriemand te praat, iemand anders tebeswadder, te beledig en oneer aan tedoen, omdat jy van hom of haar nie hounie.
Ons doen dit openlik, maar ook baiesubtiel....soos ‘n listige slang. Deur net ‘nskimp oor iemand te gooi kan jy ‘n persoonbeswadder. ‘n Skimp soos:
Ek weet ‘n paar dinge van hierdie ou,maar kom ons los dit daar. So steek jydie vuur aan die brand.
Jy kan kwaadspreek deur te skinder ofstories te vertel. En dan verontskuldigjy jouself deur te sê: Ek skinder nie,maar dit is waar. Om stories te vertelwat skade doen, al is dit waar, isliefdeloos en verkeerd. Jy mag nie diewaarheid in diens van die boosheidgebruik nie. Jy sal jou self vernietigdeur wraak en haat!
Jou tong is ‘n gawe van God. Hy het ditaan jou gegee om ‘n boodskapper vanHom te wees. Om Hom te loof en teprys. Moenie dit gebruik om ‘n bood-skapper vir Satan te wees nie! Tem dietong deur vol te word van die HeiligeGees.

healthy livingFruits make perfect on-the-run snacks, they're both affordable, easilyaccessible, refreshing and very tasty.
Juicy peaches, ripe bananas, sweet strawberries, naughty cherries -they're all good for you.
Most fruits are also loaded with fibre, important vitamins and minerals,and cancer-preventing substances called phytochemicals.
Papaya is thought to bring about a reduced risk of colon and cervicalcancer. It is a rich source of beta-carotene, which the body canconvert to vitamin A. It also contains beta-cryptoxanthin.
Papaya can be eaten just as is, or mixed into fruit salads. Maximisingthe benefits of papaya it's best absorbed by the body when eatenwith fat, it is a good idea to eat papaya as part of a meal, rather thanon their own.

pistachios keepheart disease at bay
A handful of pistachio nuts a day can reduceyour chances of developing heart disease,according to a team of American researchers.
The scientists have found that pistachios bringdown levels of “bad” cholesterol in the blood,as they contain an antioxidant called lutein,also found in fruit and leafy green veg, whichcuts the build-up of bad cholesterol in thearteries.
Pistachios are very healthy in moderation.A handful a day is very easily incorpo-ratedinto the diet and they are less calorific thanpeanuts as you have to take the shell off.
To reach the conclusion, scientists atPennsylvania State University and OklahomaMedical Research Foundation chose 28 adultswhose average bad cholesterol level was“borderline high”. They first gave them a dietrich in cheese, oil and butter. Then theyswitched to low-fat diets before incorporatingpistachios. Bad cholesterol levels dropped by12 per cent when two daily servings ofpistachios were eaten. Good cholesterol levelsdid not change.
The study has been published in TheAmerican Journal of ClinicalNutrition.

All too often an outstanding image or painting isrendered dull and boring when partnered with apoor choice of mass produced frame. As in thecase of antique furniture, a good picture frameshould have a "patina", allowing the light to reflectoff the frame in a most pleasant and warm way.
Choose a profile that will suit the type of image, for example, whenframing black and white photographs or similar images, mostframers tend to use a simple flat black frame and whilst this maylook attractive initially (and is often cost-effective) flat moldingstend to be exactly that, "flat", and don't reflect light in an interestingway. The frame should have a sense of history.
Don't be scared of hanging pictures together in groups - you wouldbe surprised how wonderful a set six or eight images in identical
frames can look. We are fortunate enough, in SouthAfrica, to have large walls on which to hang picturesand there is nothing worse than seeing a single picture,too small for the wall and inevitably hung at the incorrectheight.
How to hang your pictures.....as a rule, the upper third ofthe picture should be at eye-level and no higher. Thereis nothing worse than pictures hung to high or, when ingroups, hung too far apart. Again, as a general rule,pictures should be no further apart than the width of themoulding and in fact where a number of pictures in thesame frame are grouped together try a gap of about80% of the moulding width.
Let your more important pictures breath. Important artworks or framed prints should be hung in proper space.The importance of proper lighting for those importantpictures cannot be underestimated.
pretty as a picture - frame it ...

A few days a go a friend asked myhusband, what will be the best andcheapest, garage or carport?
When choosing a garage or carport theamount of space that you have availableand what you want to use it for will play amajor part in your decision.
You could build a garage from the groundup using brick and mortar or you couldconstruct a prefabricated garage.Retrofitting a garage to your house is amore expensive option and there are anumber of carport and garage optionsavailable.
garage or carportIf you have access and the spaceconstructing a garage in the back garden isa good option. This location is moreconvenient for storage and more flexible forfuture conversion to another use, such as agranny flat.
The general rule for building a garage - youneed 3.6m x 7.2m of space per car. Adouble garage, therefore, should be 7.2m x7.2m. If you are going to use your garageas a living space or are turning an existinggarage into an additional room, then you’llneed to consider things like insulation andwaterproofing.
The design of your garage and carportshould always blend in with your house andyou may require approval from yourmunicipality, so check before you startconstruction.
A carport offers the cheapest solution for acar shelter, and also offers the greatestrange of DIY styles. Although they offer
little security compared to garages, carportsmay be cooler in summer. Carports canalso be expandable, by adding more roofarea onto the end as your needs, orperhaps budget, increase.
Some carports are even designed so that,should the need arise, they can beenclosed and turned into a garage, with adoor attached to the roof.
Along with veterinary care, a nutritious diet iscritical to your cat's health and longevity. Theright food plays such an important role inresponsible cat care. Cats sometimes requirespecial foods for hairball control, weightcontrol, urinary tract health, or to meet thespecial needs of aging cats.
Subtle changes in weight can be indicativeof serious underlying conditions, and for thatreason, ideally, your cat should be weighedmonthly after reaching the age of ten years.Many veterinarians will perform this servicefor free, or you could invest in a scale whichgive small enough increments for closemonitoring.
As cats age and become more sedentary,they often tend to gain weight if continued ontheir normal diet. Although this normallyhappens between the ages of six and eight,sometimes older cats become obese.
Even younger cats, if allowed to eat excessamounts of high-calorie foods, may gainweight excessively. Excess weight can be
contributary to a number of conditions,including arthritis, diabetes and heartdisease.
Feed Less of the Normal Diet - this willprobably be difficult at first, for both you andyour cat. No one wants to see their cat gohungry, but you must remind yourself (andkitty) that he will be healthier in the long run.
This method is best accomplished bygradually reducing the amount of food yourcat receives until he is eating approximatelythe caloric requirements for his desirednormal weight.
There are several excellent weightreduction foods on the market today. Beforechoosing one, you need to determine that itcontains the nutrients that your older catneeds, including fat (essential fatty acidsincluded), protein, vitamins and minerals.
Most "lite" cat foods increase the amount offiber while lowering the amount of fat, andsometimes, protein. Cats eating a "lite" food
