Charity Highlight - National Ovarian Cancer Coalition


One of the many charities we support is the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition. We became familiar with this organization when a customer of our lost her fight to this deadly disease. Many times referred to as an agressive cancer, ovarian cancer can quietly sneak up on the patient, with symptoms appearing only when the disease has reached a advanced stage.

Shortly after our customer lost her battle, her daughter Andrea became actively involved in the local Eastern Michigan Chapter of the NOCC. Andrea frequently stops in at our retail store to drop off handouts and other awareness materials from the NOCC. We have a small basket of patient information for our customers.

This information helped the spouse of my husband's colleage at his work location. This coworker's wife was diagnosed with an advanced stage of ovarian cancer. Doctors were skeptical that treatment would stop the cancer, but agree to perform surgery to remove a tumor. After surgical treatment and post-surgical chemotherapy, his wife's cancer has now been put into remission.

One item that has been selling well is the "Cooking for a Cure" charity cookbook from the Eastern Michigan Chapter of the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition. This cookbook has a nice selection of recipies, everything from salads and soups to entrees and deserts. You can find a listing to the Cooking for a Cure charity cookbook in our eBay store, complete with page photos of the cookbook index and a sample recipie page. Simply click on the cookbook image in this post and we'll take you to that listing. All funds received from the sale of the cookbook are being donated to the Eastern Michigan Chapter of the NOCC, less any eBay and PayPal fees.

More information about ovarian cancer can be found at the NOCC website, by clicking on the NOCC logo above, or by visiting http://www.ovarian.org/ . Fact sheets, awareness cards, and stories of survival can be found at this location. Please download this valuable information today and share with someone you love!

Featured Product: Brush for American Girl Dolls

Many of our retail customers have discovered a new use for our rubber handled wire brush....combing the hair on American Girl Dolls!

This full-sized brush is the correct type for use on American Girl Dolls, as specified by the manufacturer. Wire brushes are perfect for combing synthetic hair wigs, due to their construction and design.

Compared against the American Girl Doll branded brush, the wire tines on the brush are long enough to grab a good portion of synthetic hair, without becoming tangled and pulling on the hair fibers too hard. The number of tines produce smooth, straightened hair without making the hair seem coarse. And the cushioned tine base allows the brush tines to float on the wig cap, or doll head, regulating the amount of pressure applied to the item.

Please note that this brush is not manufacturered by the American Girl Doll Company, but is the type of brush recommended for use on American Girl Doll hair by the manufacturer. We've sold this brush for years in our retail store and is manufacturered for use on adult sized synthetic wigs costing from hundreds to thousands of dollars. Our local customers have purchased this brush from us for years for use on their own American Girl Dolls because its lower in cost than the American Girl Doll brand brush, and actually performs better.

So we've decided to offer this brush to our online customers, with very favorable results. We think you'll also be pleased with this brush's value and performance.
