Quote of the Issue
People are like stained glass windows: they sparkle
and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in
their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light within.
-Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, psychiatrist and author (1926- )

A WORD OR TWO FROM ME
by Karen E. Jarosz ( Karen@lonekeep.com )
------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to our sponsor, Shorespeakers. I am very happy to know that tomorrow
is the official start of Spring. My crocuses and daffodils are starting
to bloom and the early morning sun is a welcome site! Time for renewal and
rebirth. SO why not get out and enjoy the rebirth of nature by doing something
relaxing and fun? Enjoy a local happening and just rejuevenate...
Please don't hesitate to let me know of events you are aware of.
Just keep in mind that I do have a deadline because we publish
the 1st and 3rd Monday of each month so I do need information
the Friday before or I can't include it.
Don't forget you can sponsor an issue too! Just go to www.lonekeep.com/jscib and click on sponsor.
Until April 2nd, let your light shine!

***Just wanted to express my thanks to those of you who have responded
to this note! Jacob is doing well and the response from the readers
was truly wonderful and it restored my faith in the belief that there
are good people out there who are always willing to help another fellow
human being. Thank you doesn't seem enough but know that you have made
a difference...***
This was sent to me by a friend and I needless to say was very upset
and thought that maybe some good hearted people out there would be able
help out. Jacob Phillips is a young boy who is a sweet, bright boy
and my prayers are with him and his family!!
"Jacob has advanced cancer and is in Robert Wood Johnson Hospital.
Fortunately, he has an excellent oncologist and a fair chance
of beating this thing through a year of aggressive treatment.
He's in good spirits. The first round of chemo went very well.
We are looking for Blood Type O donors who might be willing to go
to New Brunswick a few times to donate blood or platelets for
Jacob when he might need them."
Thanks!!
