DJ Vadim diagnosed with cancer :(

Shit, just saw this on Yarrah Bravo's blog (his wife).

Quote:
I hope that you will understand that the only reason i am making this
public, is because i believe in the power of the people!!
And i believe in collective thought.
If we all challenge our energy towards something we can make it happen.

WE ARE THAT STRONG!!!

There is no easy way of sharing this with you...
so i'll just go ahead and do it.

Vadim has been diagnosed with Cancer!!!
(If you would like to know more about it, please google it.
As i do not want to delve into it here.
The name is: Ocular Melanoma / choroidal melanoma and
it is a very rare type of cancer)

This has obviously been a shock for all of us.

I hope everyday that i'll wake up and it's all been a bad dream...

I can't help but feel anger and frustration, as it's so hard
to accept that this has happened to such a good man!!!

Not only someone so extremely talented!!!
But someone so healthy, so young, so fit?
Someone so kind, so loving, so funny?

A friend of mine said to me the other day,
''Maybe this type of thing happens to the real good people, just
because they are the ones who are strong enough to survive through
something like this??''

Yeah maybe?

I still don't think it's fair.

But whatever the reason may be.

I know one thing....

Vadim is a fighter!!
He always pushes himself to the limit...

And i will be there pushing for him when he can not.

ALL my energy and presence is now channeled in Vadim's
direction to help him get better!!

He is by far one of the most incredible and inspiring people i know.
And i am truly blessed to have met him!!!!

And so is everyone who has ever been touched by his music and his presence!!!!!

So many times has he had my back and lifted me up when i was down!
And i wish now that we can all do the same for him!

All i am asking from you, is to create a proactive boomerang
....WORLD WIDE and please pray for him! Help him heal!!

Send him all your energy and love, and think intensely about him
surviving, recovering and coming back stronger!!!

Musically he has many more shows to rock, many more albums to finnish.
And so many more adventures to go on...the world needs him!!

Fuck..... i need him!!!

Please take your time out to light him a candle and think
about him in the most positive colorful light....starting NOW!!!
Shower him wit LOVE!!!! Telepathically, spiritually, verbally...in which ever way!!!

Cause we have the power to do so!!

For the past few weeks i been trying my absolute hardest to get him the best
treatment available. And making sure he is strong, spiritually, mentally and
physically for whatever is ahead. I remain positive!!! And try to instill that positivity
in him....daily!!!
But right now there is not much more i can do. It is time to give him over to the doctors.

(Physically, but not spiritually!!)

He is in hospital now.
And will have an operation tomorrow, (friday 26th of September 8am UK time) , i can not tell
you exactly how long he will have to stay in hospital. But i hope not for too long.

so....Friends & Family...

Know this...we are powerful, our thoughts are powerful,
so if we challenge our energy towards him when he is going
through this chapter in his life.
I know that our collective positive energy and light will help him through this!

...i know this might not have been the most eloquent letter
i've written...but i was not entirely sure how to convey these news to
you, so yeah i just wrote it the best i could considering the situation.

Thank you for reading...

- Yarah aka Captain Love Bubble
He's apparently had the tumor removed so here's hoping for a full recovery...

Quote:
i know a lot of you been wondering how it went for Vadim, after i dropped the bomb
last week and reached out and asked for your help... so here's a lil quick update

Let me start of by saying that there must be a lot of angels out
there watching over him ...
(probably reading this right now ; )

Yes...
I, like so many others were devastated by the news of Vads cancer.
Just the C word makes a lot of people shiver, and unfortunately
too many of yall out there know too well what cancer can truly do
to you and the people close to you. If you dont know, then i hope you
never will.

The past few weeks could best be described as falling into a dark hole, head first,
into an unknown world you did not want to enter... only to realize it's not possible
to turn around, close the door and walk away... darkness!

YOU guys brought a lot of light!!
And all the candles you lit through out the world lit up even the darkest corner....

Words can not express how thankful i am...
Cause I know in my heart that all the prayers and thoughts, and candles gave Vadim the
strength to pull through!! i just know it!!

You see...
Vadim was in for a very dangerous, long, and grueling operation
last friday. With way too many things that could've gone wrong.

Suffice to say we were worried.
But i knew in my heart nothing would go wrong...it just couldn't!!!

AND....

THANKFULLY the actual operation went even better than what the doctors expected!!!!! = )

Vadim is now past the first and most crucial stage, which was removing the tumor. YEAH!!

And though the operation was a great success (THANK YOU!!!), he's not in the clear yet.
There are more tests to be done and more to go through before we can stop crossing
our fingers.

But for now he is recovering and has been treated brilliantly by the surgeons, nurses
and all at the Liverpool Royal Hospital.
The surgeon even cancelled his holiday and called back his team from their
holidays to do the operation. yeah...that's how urgent it was!

Vadim was so strong!!
But the operation still knocked him out completely, and it was hard to see him
looking so fragile. When he is usually the guy telling jokes and laughing hard.

We were not suppose to be close to him during the radiotherapy, because it can put
you at risk if you are not the patient, but i had to hold his hand anyways. Just to give him
strength! And tell him about all the amazing people all over the world that were thinking
and praying (to whichever GOD they hold high, above or within themselves) for him.
And though it looked like he couldn't hear me, i know he could feel it...

THANK YOU!!!

When Vadim is feeling better he will share with you his experience
....and what the future holds for him.

it is not right for me to do so.
Only he can do this....

For the people who have read about the cancer, you will know what it can entitle.
I will not go into details, there really is no need.

I know the universe will do everything in it's power to make sure that he stays
good...there is just too much LOVE out there for him not too...

right?

Unfortunately Vadim won't be able to play any gigs in the near future, or for at least a
month, and he is really sorry to all those who have bought tickets to any shows or were
planning to come, and he really appreciates yours and all the promoters understanding.

We are hoping to put on a benefit gig in London in the coming weeks for Vadim,
as the bills keep on coming with or without cancer, (you know that independent
music doens't pay right!!) and doing shows is how he makes a living, so keep
your eyes peeled for that.

And if you have any suggestion or would like to help somehow, anywhere,
please let us know on: B.W.DAWSON@GMAIL.COM ( Ben is in charge
of Vadim's website: djvadim.com and works for his record label BBE )

I really dont know what i would've done without Ben, an amazing friend
who dropped everything to help us out. As well as Paddy and Emma in Liverpool,
who made sure we had a place to stay during the hours we were not allowed to
be at the hospital with Vadim.
My mom, who never left my side making sure i never crumbled, as well as
every good friend who offered a shoulder to cry on.
And Vadim's parents who it must've been harder for, than what
they allowed themselves to show.

And of course YOU GUYS!!!
Every single one of you who reached out and shared your energy....
You wrote some amazing and very touching messages indeed.

I think maybe we are more powerful than what we give ourselves
credit for, huh? ; )

Thank you indefinitely for all your well wishes and prayers and LOVE!!!
Please keep thinking positive thoughts and make sure you hug the people
you love extra hard when you see them next!!

Let that internal candle burn for as long as you possibly can...

HUGS & KISSES

Peace
Yarah
