<div>Hello friends. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I have started this page to assist my good friend Jake Bergen. Jake has been battling both colon and liver cancer for some time. When first diagnosed he went the traditional Manitoba Health approved route, which of course was largely based on radiation, chemotherapy and surgery. Traditional treatments as well as surgery have the colon cancer on hold, but the liver cancer did not respond to chemo. As well, the chemo had serious negative side effects to the point where the cure became worse than the disease.

</div>
<div>As a result of this, Jake made the decision to stop chemo. As there are many alternative cancer therapies available, Jake asked his oncologist what, or who, might make a difference. The oncologist recommended a Naturopath to Jake, and he has since started on a new alternative therapy. The results so far are very positive. I noticed the difference right away; after having the somewhat faded look of a person with cancer, Jake was once again the hale, hearty man we have known all these years. We are hopeful that if the new treatment continues to shrink the tumours, that surgery will be possible and we'll see Jake back on the tennis court next year !

</div>
<div>There's only one problem. These treatments are not covered by Manitoba Health. That's why I'm asking you, my friends, to help out. Any donation, any size, as well as all thoughts and prayers, will be gratefully received.
