Default Sad news and a (sorta) AD

Our girl doggie, Babes had a small skin tumor removed on Monday and the
lab results are back and it's a level 2 sarcoma (cancer). We need to
have additional surgery done, plus drug therapy and possibly some
'cancer hunt' type tests to determine if the cancer cells have spread to
other areas, like the lypmph system.

Although we probably can afford to take the funds out of our savings,
I'd prefer to not do that and will be selling off portions of my bead
collection to help underwrite the costs.

Before I start listing specific items for sale, I'd like to know if
there is anything in particular that you are In Search Of, whether it be
beads, findings, polymer clay, etc. If I have it, and I'm willing to
part with it (the hard part, lol), I will offer you a fair price, never
more than what I originally paid for said item(s) plus shipping. I'm
just looking to recoup my investment and pad out my bottom line, as it were.

I have: Bali and Bali-style silver, basic findings, a wide variety of
pressed glass, semiprecious stones, firepolish and Swarovski crystal. I
have colored copper wire and sterling wires in various gauges and
hardneses. Imported and domestic lampwork. A full strand of opalite
glass briolettes. B/C grade lampwork purchased in Venice, Italy. Hemp
cording. Seed beads (japanese, czech, delicas, drops, cubes). I have
Premo in 2 oz packages, Sculpey glaze in gloss and matte, TLS, Soft Fimo
in metallics and pearls.

I prefer to accept only funded paypal or money orders.

Please email me directly with your 'want list': penguintrax AT
penguintrax DOT com and put Beads for Babes in the subject line.

I'm really sorry. Our dog, Dylan, had squamous cell carcinoma in her mouth,
and we went through radiation and chemo with her. It's an awful expense
(though far less than the cost for a human), but it bought her three years.
I hope the tests show that Babes' cancer is localized and easily treatable.

Sorry to hear of your Babes problems.
I would have like to help but I do not do Paypal and cannot send money
orders from UK.

I hope a solution can be found for Babes very soon.
Love
Shirley

Hey everyone - thanks for contacting me about your want lists. I'm going
through stock right now and will be writing you with what i have that
fits your needs.

I appreciate the many offers of direct donations but I just can't accept
them. You are the most generous folks in the world, both in spirit and
in 'goods'. As I said, I don't want to dip into savings, but if we do,
it won't be a huge hardship. There are so many in this world with less
than we have. Trust me, I won't be selling off any beads or supplies
that I actually can use over the next few months. I'm liquidating excess
inventory - something that I've been wanting to do for a while. The
veterinarian just gave me a good excuse to get off my butt and get it done.

I wish I could hug all of y'all right now!
