Dave one hour after receiving a blood transfusion on 6/20/08. He's looking
much better than he has looked in
the past two months!

My husband, Dave, was diagnosed with StageIIIb Bone Marrow Cancer, Multiple Myeloma, in 2/01. We were told he would likely survive another year to three years. After an autologous stem cell transplant, he relapsed in 2003 and was treated with a number of chemotherapy regimens. Due to Dave's rapidly escalating illness in 2005, we closed the business in October of 2005 for a few months, as I needed to devote time to my husband's care after an allogeneic stem cell transplant in 11/05. I saw the need to reduce my work load. To keep my staff paid and all of us eating, I sold some of our favorite breeding pairs. This has been a very difficult time for all of us at Aves International, but we have been reorganizing the business a bit. My husband has been home from the hospital, after a bone marrow transplant, since mid December '05 and continues to fight Multiple Myeloma.

update 6/26/08 Two weeks ago our UCLA hemotologist told us that Dave cannot tolerate any more chemotherapy. We have decided to try an experimental drug that will soon be
in clinical trials for Myeloma as well as many other types of cancers. The drug is very expensive and our insurance will not pay for it. We are trying to raise funds now as we cannot wait for a clinical trial. This drug looks extremely promising and I am excited about getting it for Dave.
very technical explanation of how the drug, cyclopamine, performs against Myeloma cell lines
Dave is now blood transfusion dependent but his liver values are better. He returned home on 5/18/08 after ten days being hospitalized for a number of health issues. He had endoscopic bile duct surgery 5/15, but no gallstone was found. and is very weak and unwell. Dave's latest lab report is showing that his cancer markers are very high now and we are still considering our options.
Thank-you to everyone for your kind thoughts and consideration at this time!

He began chemotherapy again in 11/07 after no treatment for nearly four months, due to recovery from severe bilateral fungal pneumonia known as PCP (Pneumocystis jirovecci). Dave returned home on 9/5/07 after 15 days in the h0spital. His doctors were not optimistic that Dave would recover, but he fought hard and recovered quickly once the right medication was administered. We are so grateful to the many doctors, nurses, and other medical technicians that have helped Dave in the past several years!
We continue to be positive and to find the humor in every day!


Dave's lab work in late summer '07 showed a HUGE reduction in his cancer marker, which was really good news! Dave's lab reports from early 2007 had showed
a very high/quickly escalating cancer marker that rose to a sky-high level in 5/07.
He was very ill the entire year of 2007, with a lot of bone pain, and he suffered many pathological bone fractures of his clavicle, sternum, and ribs. We saw a Multiple Myeloma specialist, Dr. Robert Vescio, at Cedars Sinai Medical Center on 5/31/07,
and he recommended
VDoxD iv chemotherapy . This therapy has some difficult side effects, but it was quite effective for Dave for several months.

 There's some crook out there, Hong Kong area maybe, that has stolen the copy on this site and publishes it illegally as "Carol Aviary International". "She" calls herself "Carol Yong" and is a fraud and a thief. I fear that innocent people might have sent them money and been scammed. I've had the site taken down three times so far on various servers. This scammer is in no way associated with Aves International, is not authorized to use our images nor any of our web content, and does not sell birds for us. If you see this illegal site published anywhere on the Internet, we would appreciate very much being notified, thank-you!

links to bird care articles by Larry Nemetz, DVM

I received this email on 11/23/07. PLEASE READ AND BE WARNED!
 NONSTICK, SELF CLEANING OVEN ALERT "Our Dear T.and P. C. (names withheld) lost 3 of their feathery children on Thanksgiving day. A tragedy that I pray none of us ever have to go through. They had no idea that the self cleaning oven they have, and NEVER used was a danger to anyone. Bubba, the Severe Macaw, fell off his perch and Tammy called me as she did not see it happen but the bird was quite stressed. My first question was are you cooking with anything non stick. Of course her answer was NO. She brought the bird over to my home and we treated for shock and swelling in case the fall caused a problem. The bird responded directly and went right to Tammys shoulder. She took Bubba home. She called me in an hour to tell me the bird had died. And an hour after that she called again to say that it was something in her house, 2 more birds were going fast. I again asked about the non stick cook wear, and got a NO answer. I then asked about a self cleaning oven and got a Yes but never used. I knew instantly that that was the culprit. Tammy and Paul already had all the birds outside and the house airing out thinking it might be a gas leak.
Christmas is coming and everyone that is cooking and has birds...
IF YOU HAVE A SELF CLEANING OVEN BOARD THE BIRDS..... Nothing that is non stick is safe and no self cleaning oven is either. The gasses from these monsters act like an acid on the birds insides and kill them very quickly....We can only be thankful that the other four birds were spared. PLEASE WARN YOUR FRIENDS THAT HAVE BIRDS AND TAKE CARE OF YOUR FEATHERY CHILDREN. You have now been warned, take no chances, This is far to important to ignore. Our love to Tammy and Paul our hearts are with you and thank you for letting me tell your sad story so that we can, hopefully , save the lives of other birds in the future. P.S. Janet went out and bought a new stove today and dumped her self cleeaning one." Karen Allen, President, South Bay Bird Society
